"...held up like a loofah by the foreman of the night."

Revved up like a deuce makes no sense either.
In 2005, Springsteen himself commented on this amusing mistake. “Deuce was like a Little Deuce Coupe, as in a 2-seater Hot Rod."
1932 Ford Deuce Coupe
TIL this was originally a Springsteen song. I’ve only ever heard Manfred Mann's Earth Band’s far superior version.
thems fightin words
Heresy, the Springsteen version has more verses
As an aside, but in the same vein; TIL that the song Hard to Handle is not a Black Crowes song, nor Grateful Dead, but Otis Redding
I did know about this being a Springsteen song ( and you are totally correct, Manfred Mann hits it outta the park)
Ahhh
