[includes lyrics plus article from NPR] January 29, 2026

We publish below the lyrics of a new song Bruce Spingsteen released on January 28, 2026. The Boss, as the singer is known, released “Streets of Minneapolis” as part of a protest movement across the United States demanding an end to the terror unleashed by the Trump administration through its Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol thugs against undocumented immigrants and all working people.

We also publish an article first released by National Public Radio (NPR) News announcing the song’s debut.

It feels like he's just coming full circle to Nebraska and deciding to go more raw. I think he's always wanted to be this guy and has just finally decided to stop making it pretty.
