The new Bruce Springsteen song “We Take Care of Our Own” from his forthcoming album “Wrecking Ball” has the anthemic quality of some of his greatest songs (Badlands in particular comes to mind), and he wears his allegiance to the American working man (and woman) on his sleeve with the lyrics.

Check out the video.

The new album drops on March 6th and Bruce hits the road with the E Street Band on March 18^th.

The band will head to Europe for shows in May, June and July and then do a second round of American dates which have yet to be announced.
