《High Water (For Charley Patton)》歌词

[00:00:00] High Water (For Charley Patton) - Bob Dylan (鲍勃·迪伦)

[00:00:15] High water risin' risin' night and day

[00:00:19] All the gold and silver are being stolen away

[00:00:23] Big Joe Turner lookin' East and West

[00:00:25] From the dark room of his mind

[00:00:28] He made it to Kansas City

[00:00:30] Twelfth Street and Vine

[00:00:33] Nothing standing there

[00:00:37] High water everywhere

[00:00:43] High water risin' the shacks are slidin' down

[00:00:47] Folks lose their possessions folks are leaving town

[00:00:51] Bertha Mason shook it broke it

[00:00:53] Then she hung it on a wall

[00:00:56] Says You're dancin' with whom they tell you to

[00:00:58] Or you don't dance at all

[00:01:01] It's tough out there

[00:01:05] High water everywhere

[00:01:10] I got a cravin' love for blazing speed

[00:01:13] Got a hopped up Mustang Ford

[00:01:15] Jump into the wagon love throw your panties overboard

[00:01:19] I can write you poems make a strong man lose his mind

[00:01:24] I'm no pig without a wig

[00:01:26] I hope you treat me kind

[00:01:28] Things are breakin' up out there

[00:01:33] High water everywhere

[00:01:39] High water risin' six inches 'bove my head

[00:01:43] Coffins droppin' in the street

[00:01:45] Like balloons made out of lead

[00:01:48] Water pourin' into Vicksburg don't know what I'm going to do

[00:01:52] Don't reach out for me she said

[00:01:54] Can't you see I'm drownin' too

[00:01:57] It's rough out there

[00:02:01] High water everywhere

[00:02:06] Well George Lewis told the Englishman the Italian and the Jew

[00:02:11] You can't open your mind boys

[00:02:13] To every conceivable point of view

[00:02:16] They got Charles Darwing trapped out there on Highway Five

[00:02:20] Judge says to the High Sheriff

[00:02:22] I want him dead or alive

[00:02:24] Either one I don't care

[00:02:29] High Water everywhere

[00:02:34] The Cuckoo is a pretty bird she warbles as she flies

[00:02:39] I'm preachin' the Word of God

[00:02:41] I'm puttin' out your eyes

[00:02:43] I asked Fat Nancy for something to eat she said

[00:02:46] Take it off the shelf

[00:02:48] As great as you are a man

[00:02:49] You'll never be greater than yourself

[00:02:52] I told her I didn't really care

[00:02:56] High water everywhere

[00:03:02] I'm getting' up in the morning I believe I'll dust my broom

[00:03:07] Keeping away from the women

[00:03:08] I'm givin' 'em lots of room

[00:03:11] Thunder rolling over Clarksdale everything is looking blue

[00:03:15] I just can't be happy love

[00:03:18] Unless you're happy too

[00:03:20] It's bad out there

[00:03:24] High water everywhere
