Tin Angel - Bob Dylan[00:00:00]

Written by：Bob Dylan[00:00:00]

It was late last night when the boss came home[00:00:14]

To a deserted mansion and a desolate throne[00:00:18]

Servant said Boss the lady's gone[00:00:21]

She left this morning just 'fore dawn[00:00:25]

You got something to tell me tell it to me man[00:00:32]

Come to the point as straight as you can[00:00:36]

Old Henry Lee chief of the clan[00:00:39]

Came riding through the woods and took her by the hand[00:00:42]

The boss he lay back flat on his bed[00:00:50]

He cursed the heat and he clutched his head[00:00:53]

He pondered the future of his fate[00:00:57]

To wait another day would be far too late[00:01:00]

Go fetch me my coat and my tie[00:01:07]

And the cheapest labor that money can buy[00:01:11]

Saddle me up my buckskin mare[00:01:15]

If you see me go by put up a prayer[00:01:18]

Well they rode all night and they rode all day[00:01:25]

Eastward long down the broad highway[00:01:29]

His spirit was tired and his vision was bent[00:01:32]

His men deserted him and onward he went[00:01:36]

He came to a place where the light was dull[00:01:43]

His forehead pounding in his skull[00:01:47]

Heavy heart was racked with pain[00:01:50]

Insomnia raging in his brain[00:01:54]

Well he threw down his helmet and his cross-handled sword[00:02:01]

He renounced his faith he denied his Lord[00:02:04]

Crawled on his belly put his ear to the wall[00:02:08]

One way or another put an end to it all[00:02:11]

He leaned down cut the electric wire[00:02:19]

Stared into the flames and he snorted the fire[00:02:22]

Peered through the darkness caught a glimpse of the two[00:02:26]

It was hard to tell for certain who was who[00:02:29]

He lowered himself down on a golden chain[00:02:36]

His nerves were quaking in every vein[00:02:40]

His knuckles were bloody he sucked in the air[00:02:43]

He ran his fingers through his greasy hair[00:02:47]

They looked at each other and their glasses clinked[00:02:54]

One single unit inseparably linked[00:02:58]

Got a strange premonition there's a man close by[00:03:01]

Don't worry about him he wouldn't harm a fly[00:03:05]

From behind the curtain the boss he crossed the floor[00:03:12]

He moved his feet and he bolted the door[00:03:15]

Shadows hiding the lines in his face[00:03:19]

With all the nobility of an ancient race[00:03:22]

She turned she was startled with a look of surprise[00:03:30]

With a hatred that could hit the skies[00:03:33]

You're a reckless fool I could see it in your eyes[00:03:37]

To come this way was by no means wise[00:03:40]

Get up stand up you greedy-lipped wench[00:03:48]

And cover your face or suffer the consequence[00:03:51]

You are making my heart feel sick[00:03:54]

Put your clothes back on double-quick[00:03:58]

Silly boy you think me a saint[00:04:05]

I'll listen no more to your words of complaint[00:04:09]

You've given me nothing but the sweetest lies[00:04:12]

Now hold your tongue and feed your eyes[00:04:16]

I'd have given you the stars and the planets too[00:04:23]

But what good would these things do you[00:04:26]

Bow the heart if not the knee[00:04:30]

Or never again this world you'll see[00:04:34]

Oh please let not your heart be cold[00:04:41]

This man is dearer to me than gold[00:04:44]

Oh my dear you must be blind[00:04:48]

He's a gutless ape with a worthless mind[00:04:51]

You've had your way too long with me[00:04:58]

Now it's me who'll determine how things shall be[00:05:02]

Try to escape he cussed and cursed[00:05:06]

You'll have to try to get past me first[00:05:09]

Do not let your passion rule[00:05:16]

You think my heart the heart of a fool[00:05:20]

And you sir you can not deny[00:05:23]

You made a monkey of me what and for why[00:05:27]

I'll have no more of this insulting chat[00:05:34]

The devil can have you I'll see to that[00:05:38]

Look sharp or step aside[00:05:42]

Or in the cradle you'll wish you'd died[00:05:45]

The gun went boom and the shot rang clear[00:05:52]

First bullet grazed his ear[00:05:55]

Second ball went right straight in[00:05:59]

And he bent in the middle like a twisted pin[00:06:02]

He crawled to the corner and he lowered his head[00:06:10]

He gripped the chair and he grabbed the bed[00:06:13]

It would take more than needle and thread[00:06:17]

Bleeding from the mouth he's as good as dead[00:06:20]

You shot my husband down you fiend[00:06:27]

Husband What husband What the hell do you mean[00:06:31]

He was a man of strife a man of sin[00:06:34]

I cut him down and I threw him to the wind[00:06:38]

This she said with angry breath[00:06:49]

You too shall meet the lord of death[00:06:52]

It was I who brought your soul to life[00:06:56]

Then she raised her robe and she drew out a knife[00:06:59]

His face was hard and caked with sweat[00:07:06]

His arms ached and his hands were wet[00:07:10]

You're a murderous queen and a bloody wife[00:07:13]

If you don't mind I'll have the knife[00:07:17]

We're two of a kind and our blood runs hot[00:07:24]

But we're no way similar in body or thought[00:07:28]

All husbands are good men as all wives know[00:07:31]

Then she pierced him to the heart and his blood did flow[00:07:35]

His knees went limp and he reached for the door[00:07:42]

His tomb was sealed he slid to the floor[00:07:46]

He whispered in her ear This is all your fault[00:07:49]

My fighting days have come to a halt[00:07:53]

She touched his lips and kissed his cheek[00:08:00]

He tried to speak but his breath was weak[00:08:03]

You died for me now I'll die for you[00:08:07]

She put the blade to her heart and she ran it through[00:08:10]

All three lovers together in a heap[00:08:18]

Thrown into the grave forever to sleep[00:08:21]

Funeral torches blazed away[00:08:25]

Through the towns and the villages all night and all day[00:08:28]
