Bob Dylan's 115th Dream (Take 1 & 2, Solo Acoustic) - Bob Dylan[00:00:00]
I was riding on the Mayflower[00:00:04]
When I thought I spied some land[00:00:07]
I was riding on the Mayflower[00:00:28]
When I thought I spied some land[00:00:30]
I yelled for Captain Arab[00:00:33]
I have yuh understand[00:00:35]
Who came running to the deck[00:00:38]
Said Boys forget the whale[00:00:40]
Look on over yonder[00:00:42]
Cut the engines[00:00:44]
Change the sail[00:00:46]
Haul on the bowline[00:00:47]
We sang that melody[00:00:49]
Like all tough sailors do[00:00:52]
When they are far away at sea[00:00:54]
I think I'll call it America[00:00:58]
I said as we hit land[00:01:01]
I took a deep breath[00:01:03]
I fell down I could not stand[00:01:05]
Captain Arab he started[00:01:08]
Writing up some deeds[00:01:10]
He said Let's set up a fort[00:01:12]
And start buying the place with beads[00:01:15]
Just then this cop comes down the street[00:01:17]
Crazy as a loon[00:01:19]
He throw us all in jail[00:01:22]
For carrying harpoons[00:01:23]
Ah me I busted out[00:01:28]
Don't even ask me how[00:01:30]
I went to get some help[00:01:32]
But I walked by a Guernsey cow[00:01:34]
Who directed me down[00:01:36]
To the Bowery slums[00:01:38]
Where people carried signs around[00:01:41]
Saying Ban the bums[00:01:43]
I relax right away[00:01:45]
And I saied hope that I'm not late[00:01:47]
When I realized I hadn't eaten[00:01:50]
For five days straight[00:01:52]
I went into a restaurant[00:01:56]
Lookin for the cook[00:01:58]
I told them I was the editor[00:02:00]
Of a famous etiquette book[00:02:02]
The waitress he was handsome[00:02:05]
He wore a powder blue cape[00:02:07]
I ordered some suzette that I said[00:02:09]
Could you please make that crepe[00:02:11]
Just then the whole kitchen exploded[00:02:14]
From boilin fat[00:02:16]
Food was flying everywhere[00:02:18]
And I left without my hat[00:02:20]
Now I didn't mean to be nosy[00:02:25]
But I went into a bank[00:02:27]
To get some bail for Arab[00:02:29]
And all the boys back in the tank[00:02:31]
They asked me for some collateral[00:02:34]
And I pulled down my pants[00:02:36]
They threw me in the alley[00:02:38]
When up comes this girl from France[00:02:40]
Who invited me to her house[00:02:42]
I went but she had a friend[00:02:44]
Who knocked me out[00:02:47]
And robbed my boots[00:02:48]
And I was on the street again[00:02:49]
Well I rapped upon a house[00:02:58]
With the US flag upon display[00:03:00]
I said Could you help me out[00:03:03]
I got some friends down the way[00:03:04]
The man says Get out of here[00:03:07]
I'll tear you limb from limb[00:03:09]
I said You know they refused Jesus too[00:03:11]
He said You're not Him[00:03:14]
Get out of here before I break your bones[00:03:16]
I ain't your pop[00:03:18]
I decided to have him arrested[00:03:20]
And I went looking for a cop[00:03:22]
When I ran right outside[00:03:30]
And I hopped inside a cab[00:03:32]
I went out the other door[00:03:34]
This Englishman said Fab[00:03:36]
As he saw me leap a hot dog stand[00:03:39]
And a chariot that stood[00:03:41]
Parked across from a building[00:03:44]
Advertising brotherhood[00:03:45]
I ran right through the front door[00:03:48]
Like a hobo sailor does[00:03:50]
But it was just a funeral parlor[00:03:52]
And the man asked me who I was[00:03:54]
I repeated that my friends[00:03:58]
Were all in jail with a sigh[00:04:00]
He gave me his card[00:04:03]
He said Call me if they die[00:04:04]
I shook his hand and said goodbye[00:04:07]
Ran out to the street[00:04:09]
When a bowling ball came down the road[00:04:11]
And knocked me off my feet[00:04:14]
A pay phone was ringing[00:04:16]
It just about blew my mind[00:04:18]
When I picked it up and said hello[00:04:20]
This foot came through the line[00:04:22]
Well by this time I was fed up[00:04:32]
At trying to make a stab[00:04:34]
At bringing back some help[00:04:36]
For my friends and Captain Arab[00:04:38]
I decided to flip a coin[00:04:41]
Like either heads or tails[00:04:43]
Would let me know but I should go[00:04:45]
Back to ship or back to tail[00:04:47]
So I hocked my sailor suit[00:04:50]
And I got a coin to flip[00:04:52]
It came up tails[00:04:54]
It rhymed with sails[00:04:55]
So I made it back to the ship[00:04:56]
Well I got back and took[00:05:01]
The parking ticket off the mast[00:05:03]
I was ripping it to shreds[00:05:05]
When this coastguard boat went past[00:05:07]
They asked me my name[00:05:10]
And I said Captain Kidd[00:05:12]
They believed me but[00:05:14]
They wanted to know[00:05:15]
What exactly that I did[00:05:16]
I said for the Pope of Eruke[00:05:19]
I was employed[00:05:21]
They let me go right away[00:05:22]
They were very paranoid[00:05:24]
Well the last I heard of Arab[00:05:37]
He was stuck on a whale[00:05:39]
That was married to the deputy[00:05:41]
Sheriff of the jail[00:05:43]
But the funniest thing was[00:05:45]
When I was leaving the bay[00:05:48]
I saw three ships a sailin[00:05:50]
They were all heading my way[00:05:52]
I asked the captain what his name was[00:05:54]
And how come he didn't drive a truck[00:05:56]
He said his name was Columbus[00:05:59]
I just said Good luck[00:06:01]
