Jokerman - Bob Dylan[00:00:00]

Written by：Bob Dylan[00:00:00]

Standing on the water casting your bread[00:00:01]

While the eyes of the idol with the iron head are glowing[00:00:04]

Distant ships sailing into the mist[00:00:12]

You were born with a snake in both of your fists while a hurricane was blowing[00:00:15]

Freedom just around the corner for you[00:00:23]

But with truth so far off what good will it do [00:00:29]

Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune[00:00:37]

Bird fly high by the light of the moon[00:00:40]

Oh oh oh Jokerman [00:00:44]

So swiftly the sun sets in the sky[00:00:51]

You rise up and say goodbye to no one[00:00:55]

Fools rush in where angels fear to tread[00:01:02]

Both of their futures so full of dread you don't show one[00:01:05]

Shedding off one more layer of skin[00:01:13]

Keeping one step ahead of the persecutor within [00:01:19]

Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune[00:01:27]

Bird fly high by the light of the moon[00:01:30]

Oh oh oh Jokerman [00:01:34]

You're a man of the mountains you can walk on the clouds[00:01:41]

Manipulator of crowds you're a dream twister[00:01:44]

You're going to Sodom and Gomorrah[00:01:51]

But what do you care Ain't nobody there would want marry your sister[00:01:54]

Friend to the martyr a friend to the woman of shame[00:02:03]

You look into the fiery furnace see the rich man without any name [00:02:09]

Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune[00:02:16]

Bird fly high by the light of the moon[00:02:19]

Oh oh oh Jokerman [00:02:23]

Well the Book of Leviticus and Deuteronomy[00:02:41]

The law of the jungle and the sea are your only teachers[00:02:45]

In the smoke of the twilight on a milk-white steed[00:02:52]

Michelangelo indeed could've carved out your features[00:02:55]

Resting in the fields far from the turbulent space[00:03:03]

Half asleep near the stars with a small dog licking your face [00:03:09]

Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune[00:03:17]

Bird fly high by the light of the moon[00:03:20]

Oh oh oh Jokerman [00:03:24]

Well the rifleman's stalking the sick and the lame[00:03:41]

Preacherman seeks the same who'll get there first is uncertain[00:03:45]

Nightsticks and water cannons tear gas padlocks[00:03:52]

Molotov cocktails and rocks behind every curtain[00:03:56]

False-hearted judges dying in the webs that they spin[00:04:03]

Only a matter of time 'til the night comes stepping in [00:04:09]

Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune[00:04:17]

Bird fly high by the light of the moon[00:04:20]

Oh oh oh Jokerman [00:04:24]

It's a shadowy world skies are slippery gray[00:04:41]

A woman just gave birth to a prince today and dressed him in scarlet[00:04:45]

He'll put the priest in his pocket put the blade to the heat[00:04:52]

Take the motherless children off the street[00:04:55]

And place them at the feet of a harlot[00:04:58]

Oh Jokerman you know what he wants[00:05:03]

Oh Jokerman you don't show any response [00:05:10]

Jokerman dance to the nightingale tune[00:05:17]

Bird fly high by the light of the moon[00:05:20]

Oh oh oh Jokerman[00:05:24]
