Black Diamond Bay - Bob Dylan (鲍勃·迪伦)[00:00:00]

Written by：Bob Dylan/Jacques Levy[00:00:01]

Up on the white veranda[00:00:48]

She wears a necktie and a panama hat[00:00:50]

Her passport shows a face[00:00:58]

From another time and place[00:01:00]

She looks nothin' like that[00:01:02]

And all of the remnants of her recent past[00:01:08]

Are scattered in the wild wind[00:01:12]

She walks across the marble floor[00:01:15]

Where a voice from the gambling room is callin' her[00:01:17]

To come on in[00:01:20]

She smiles walks the other way[00:01:22]

As the last ship sails and the moon fades away[00:01:27]

From black diamond bay[00:01:32]

As the mornin' light breaks open the greek comes down[00:01:37]

And he asks for a rope and a pen that[00:01:41]

Will write[00:01:43]

Pardon monsieur the desk clerk says[00:01:47]

Carefully removes his fez[00:01:50]

Am I hearin' you right[00:01:52]

And as the yellow fog is liftin'[00:01:57]

The greek is quickly headin' for the second floor[00:01:59]

She passes him on the spiral staircase[00:02:04]

Thinkin' he's the soviet ambassador[00:02:07]

She starts to speak but he walks away[00:02:12]

As the storm clouds rise and the palm branches sway[00:02:17]

On black diamond bay[00:02:22]

A soldier sits beneath the fan[00:02:27]

Doin' business with a tiny man who sells him a[00:02:29]

Ring[00:02:33]

Lightning strikes the lights blow out[00:02:37]

The desk clerk wakes she begins to shout[00:02:40]

Can you see anything[00:02:42]

Then the Greek appears on the second floor[00:02:47]

In his bare feet with a rope around his neck[00:02:49]

While a loser in the gambling room lights up a[00:02:55]

Candle[00:02:58]

Says open up another deck[00:02:59]

But the dealer says attendez vous s'il vous plait[00:03:02]

As the rain beats down and the cranes fly away[00:03:07]

From black diamond bay[00:03:12]

The desk clerk heard the woman laugh[00:03:17]

As he looked around than the aftermath and the soldier got[00:03:19]

Tough[00:03:23]

He tried to grab the woman's hand[00:03:26]

Said here's a ring it cost a grand[00:03:29]

She said that ain't enough[00:03:31]

Then she ran upstairs to pack her bags[00:03:36]

While a horse drawn taxi waited at the curb[00:03:39]

She passed the door that the Greek had locked[00:03:44]

Where a handwritten sign read do not disturb[00:03:46]

She knocked upon it anyway[00:03:51]

As the sun went down and the music did play[00:03:56]

On black diamond bay[00:04:01]

I've got to talk to someone quick[00:04:06]

But the Greek said go away and he kicked the[00:04:09]

Chair to the floor[00:04:11]

He hung there from the chandelier[00:04:16]

She cried a help there's danger near[00:04:18]

Please open up at the door[00:04:21]

Then the volcano erupted[00:04:26]

And the lava flowed down from the mountain high above[00:04:28]

The soldier and the tiny man were crouched in the[00:04:33]

Corner[00:04:37]

Thinking of forbidden love[00:04:38]

The desk clerk said it happens every day[00:04:41]

As the stars fell down and the fields burned away[00:04:45]

On black diamond bay[00:04:50]

As the island slowly sank[00:04:56]

The loser finally broke the bank in the gambling room[00:04:58]

The dealer said it's too late now[00:05:05]

You can take your money but I don't know how[00:05:08]

You'll spend it in the tomb[00:05:10]

The tiny man bit the soldier's ear[00:05:15]

As the floor caved in and the boiler in the[00:05:17]

Basement blew[00:05:21]

Well she's out on the balcony where a stranger tells[00:05:23]

Her[00:05:27]

My darling je vous aime beaucoup[00:05:27]

She sheds a tear and then begins to pray[00:05:30]

As the fire burns on and the smoke drifts away[00:05:35]

From black diamond bay[00:05:40]

I was sittin' home alone one night in L A[00:05:45]

Watchin' old cronkite on the seven o'clock news[00:05:48]

It seems there was an earthquake that[00:05:55]

Left nothin' but a panama hat[00:05:57]

And a pair of old greek shoes[00:05:59]

Didn't seem like much was happenin'[00:06:04]

So I turned it off and went to grab another[00:06:07]

Beer[00:06:10]

Seems like every time you turn around[00:06:12]

There's another hard luck story that you're gonna' hear[00:06:14]

And there's really nothin' anyone can say[00:06:19]

And I never did plan to go anyway[00:06:24]

To black diamond bay[00:06:29]
