《The Groom’s Still Waiting at the Altar》歌词

[00:00:00] The Groom's Still Waiting At The Altar - Bob Dylan (鲍勃·迪伦)

[00:00:10] Prayed in the ghetto

[00:00:12] With my face in the cement

[00:00:14] Heard the last moan of a boxer

[00:00:17] Seen the massacre of the innocent

[00:00:19] Felt around for the light switch

[00:00:21] Turned around for her face

[00:00:23] Been treated like a farm animal

[00:00:26] On a wild goose chase

[00:00:28] West of the Jordan east of the Rock of Gibraltar

[00:00:36] I see the turnin' of the page curtain risin' on a new age

[00:00:41] See the groom still waitin' at the altar

[00:00:55] Try to be pure at heart

[00:00:57] They arrest you for robbery

[00:01:00] Mistake your shyness for aloofness

[00:01:02] Your silence for snobbery

[00:01:04] Got the message this mornin'

[00:01:06] The one that was sent to me

[00:01:08] About the madness of becomin'

[00:01:11] What one was never meant to be

[00:01:13] West of the Jordan east of the Rock of Gibraltar

[00:01:21] I see the turning of the page curtain risin' on a new age

[00:01:26] See the groom still waitin' at the altar

[00:01:40] Don't know what I can say about Claudette

[00:01:42] That wouldn't come back to haunt me

[00:01:44] Finally had to give her up

[00:01:46] 'Bout the time she began to want me

[00:01:49] But I know God has mercy

[00:01:51] On them who are slandered and humiliated

[00:01:53] I'd a done anything for that woman

[00:01:55] If she'd only make me feel obligated

[00:01:58] West of the Jordan east of the Rock of Gibraltar

[00:02:06] I see the turning of the cage curtain risin' on a new age

[00:02:11] See the groom still waitin' at the altar

[00:02:25] Put your hand on my head baby

[00:02:27] Do I have a temperature

[00:02:29] I see people who are supposed to know better

[00:02:32] Standin' around like furniture

[00:02:34] There's a wall between you

[00:02:36] What you want you got to leap it

[00:02:38] Tonight you got the power to take it

[00:02:40] Tomorrow you won't have the power to keep it

[00:02:43] West of the Jordan east of the Rock of Gibraltar

[00:02:51] I see the turning of the page curtain risin' on a new age

[00:02:56] See the groom still waitin' at the altar

[00:03:09] Cities on fire

[00:03:12] Phones out of order

[00:03:14] They're killin' nuns and soldiers

[00:03:16] There's fightin' on the border

[00:03:18] What can I say about Claudette

[00:03:20] Ain't seen her since January

[00:03:22] She could be respectably married

[00:03:24] Or runnin' a whorehouse in Buenos Aires

[00:03:27] West of the Jordan east of the Rock of Gibraltar

[00:03:35] I see the turning of the page curtain risin' on a new age

[00:03:40] See the groom still waitin' at the altar
