Springsteen’s “Born to Run” Up For Sale

Ryan Logan April 26th, 2018

Anything from Springsteen can always catch a pretty penny, but for fans who want their hands on his lyrics, that will cost you hundreds of thousands of dollars…

The Handwritten lyrics for Springsteen’s “Born to Run” are hitting the auction block and are estimated to featch anywhere from 200,000 to 300,000. The text, which is being sold by an anonymous U.S. collector, sold for $197,000 in 2013

The majority of the lines in this version of the song are apparently unpublished and unrecorded, but the present manuscript does include a nearly perfected chorus” of the 38-year-old classic.

Bidding is slated to take place from June 18 to 28, according to Sotheby’s
