Isis - Bob Dylan[00:00:00]
I married Isis on the fifth day of May [00:00:10]
But I could not hold on to her very long [00:00:14]
So I cut off my hair[00:00:19]
And I rode straight away[00:00:20]
For the wild unknown country[00:00:23]
Where I could not go wrong [00:00:25]
I came to a high place of darkness and light [00:00:33]
The dividing line ran through the center of town [00:00:38]
I hitched up my pony to a post on the right [00:00:43]
Went in to a laundry to wash my clothes down [00:00:47]
A man in the corner approached me for a match [00:00:57]
I knew right away he was not ordinary [00:01:02]
He said [00:01:07]
"Are you lookin' for somethin' easy to catch "[00:01:08]
I said "I got no money "[00:01:11]
He said "That ain't necessary "[00:01:13]
We set out that night for the cold in the North [00:01:26]
I gave him my blanket he gave me his word [00:01:31]
I said "Where are we goin' "[00:01:36]
He said we'd be back by the fourth [00:01:37]
I said "That's the best news that I've ever heard "[00:01:40]
I was thinkin' about turquoise [00:01:55]
I was thinkin' about gold [00:01:57]
I was thinkin' about diamonds[00:02:00]
And the world's biggest necklace [00:02:02]
As we rode through the canyons [00:02:05]
Through the devilish cold [00:02:07]
I was thinkin' about Isis [00:02:10]
How she thought I was so reckless [00:02:12]
How she told me that one day[00:02:19]
We would meet up again [00:02:21]
And things would be different[00:02:25]
The next time we wed [00:02:27]
If I only could hang on and just be her friend [00:02:29]
I still can't remember all the best things she said [00:02:34]
We came to the pyramids all embedded in ice [00:02:49]
He said "There's a body I'm tryin' to find [00:02:53]
If I carry it out it'll bring a good price "[00:02:58]
'Twas then that I knew[00:03:03]
What he had on his mind [00:03:05]
The wind it was howlin'[00:03:13]
And the snow was outrageous [00:03:15]
We chopped through the night[00:03:18]
And we chopped through the dawn [00:03:19]
When he died[00:03:23]
I was hopin' that it wasn't contagious [00:03:24]
But I made up my mind that I had to go on [00:03:28]
I broke into the tomb [00:03:43]
But the casket was empty [00:03:45]
There was no jewels [00:03:47]
No nothin' I felt I'd been had [00:03:48]
When I saw that[00:03:52]
My partner was just bein' friendly [00:03:54]
When I took up his offer[00:03:57]
I must-a been mad [00:04:00]
I picked up his body[00:04:27]
And I dragged him inside [00:04:29]
Threw him down in the hole[00:04:32]
And I put back the cover [00:04:34]
I said a quick prayer and I felt satisfied [00:04:37]
Then I rode back to find Isis[00:04:42]
Just to tell her I love her [00:04:44]
She was there in the meadow[00:04:51]
Where the creek used to rise [00:04:54]
Blinded by sleep and in need of a bed [00:04:57]
I came in from the East with the sun in my eyes [00:05:02]
I cursed her one time[00:05:06]
Then I rode on ahead [00:05:08]
She said "Where ya been "[00:05:31]
I said "No place special "[00:05:33]
She said "You look different "[00:05:36]
I said "Well I guess "[00:05:38]
She said "You been gone "[00:05:40]
I said "That's only natural "[00:05:43]
She said "You gonna stay "[00:05:45]
I said "If you want me to yes "[00:05:47]
Isis oh Isis you mystical child [00:06:10]
What drives me to you is what drives me insane [00:06:14]
I still can remember the way that you smiled[00:06:19]
On the fifth day of May in the drizzlin' rain[00:06:24]
