Testo Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues - Live Version - Bob Dylan
Testo della canzone Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues - Live Version (Bob Dylan), tratta dall'album Live 1966 "The Royal Albert Hall Concert" The Bootleg Series Vol. 4
When you're lost in the rain in Juarez, and it's Easter time too
And your gravity's down and negativity don't pull you
Just don't put on any airs when you're down on Rue Morgue Avenue
They got some hungry women there and they'll really make a mess outta you
Now if you see Saint Annie, please tell her thanks a lot
I cannot move, my fingers they are all in a knot
I don't have the strength to get up and take another shot
And my best friend, the doctor, he won't even tell me what it is I've got
Sweet Melinda, the peasants call her the goddess of gloom
She speaks good English and she invites you up into her room
And you're so kind and careful not to go to her too soon
And she steals your voice and leaves you screaming at the moon
Up on Housing Project Hill it's either fortune or fame
You must pick one or the other, neither of them are to be what they claim
If you're lookin' to get silly, you better go back to from where you came
Because the cops don't need you, and man, they expect the same
Now all the authorities, they just stand around and boast
How they blackmailed the sergeant-at-arms into leaving his post
And picking up Angel, who just arrived from the coast
Who looked so fine at first, but left looking just like a ghost
I started out on Burgundy, but soon hit the harder stuff
Everybody said they'd stand behind me when the game got rough
Yea, but the joke was on me, there was nobody even at my bluff
I'm going back to New York City, I do believe I've had enough
