Bob Dylan's 115th Dream (鲍勃·迪伦第115的梦想) - Bob Dylan (鲍勃·迪伦)[00:00:00]
I was riding on the Mayflower[00:00:04]
When I thought I spied some land[00:00:06]
I was riding on the Mayflower[00:00:26]
When I thought I spied some land[00:00:28]
I yelled for Captain Arab[00:00:31]
I have yuh understand[00:00:33]
Who came running to the deck[00:00:35]
Said Boys forget the whale[00:00:37]
Look on over yonder[00:00:40]
Cut the engines[00:00:42]
Change the sail[00:00:43]
Haul on the bowline[00:00:45]
We sang that melody[00:00:47]
Like all tough sailors do[00:00:48]
When they are far away at sea[00:00:51]
I think I'll call it America[00:00:58]
I said as we hit land[00:01:00]
I took a deep breath[00:01:03]
I fell down I could not stand[00:01:05]
Captain Arab he started[00:01:07]
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[00:01:14]
Just then this cop comes down the street[00:01:16]
Crazy as a loon[00:01:19]
He throw us all in jail[00:01:21]
For carrying harpoons[00:01:23]
Ah me I busted out[00:01:29]
Don't even ask me how[00:01:32]
I went to get some help[00:01:34]
But I walked by a Guernsey cow[00:01:36]
Who directed me down[00:01:39]
To the Bowery slums[00:01:41]
Where people carried signs around[00:01:43]
Saying Ban the bums[00:01:46]
I jumped right into line[00:01:48]
Sayin I hope that I'm not late[00:01:50]
When I realized I hadn't eaten[00:01:52]
For five days straight[00:01:54]
I went into a restaurant[00:02:01]
Lookin for the cook[00:02:04]
I told them I was the editor[00:02:06]
Of a famous etiquette book[00:02:08]
The waitress he was handsome[00:02:11]
He wore a powder blue cape[00:02:13]
I ordered some suzette that I said[00:02:15]
Could you please make that crepe[00:02:17]
Just then the whole kitchen exploded[00:02:20]
From boilin fat[00:02:23]
Food was flying everywhere[00:02:25]
And I left without my hat[00:02:27]
Now I didn't mean to be nosy[00:02:33]
But I went into a bank[00:02:35]
To get some bail for Arab[00:02:38]
And all the boys back in the tank[00:02:40]
They asked me for some collateral[00:02:42]
And I pulled down my pants[00:02:44]
They threw me in the alley[00:02:47]
When up comes this girl from France[00:02:49]
Who invited me to her house[00:02:51]
I went but she had a friend[00:02:54]
Who knocked me out[00:02:56]
And robbed my boots[00:02:57]
And I was on the street again[00:02:58]
Well I rapped upon a house[00:03:05]
With the US flag upon display[00:03:07]
I said Could you help me out[00:03:10]
I got some friends down the way[00:03:12]
The man says Get out of here[00:03:14]
I'll tear you limb from limb[00:03:16]
I said You know they refused Jesus too[00:03:19]
He said You're not Him[00:03:21]
Get out of here before I break your bones[00:03:24]
I ain't your pop[00:03:26]
I decided to have him arrested[00:03:28]
And I went looking for a cop[00:03:30]
I ran right outside[00:03:41]
And I hopped inside a cab[00:03:44]
I went out the other door[00:03:46]
This Englishman said Fab[00:03:49]
As he saw me leap a hot dog stand[00:03:50]
And a chariot that stood[00:03:53]
Parked across from a building[00:03:55]
Advertising brotherhood[00:03:57]
I ran right through the front door[00:04:00]
Like a hobo sailor does[00:04:02]
But it was just a funeral parlor[00:04:04]
And the man asked me who I was[00:04:06]
I repeated that my friends[00:04:13]
Were all in jail with a sigh[00:04:15]
He gave me his card[00:04:18]
He said Call me if they die[00:04:20]
I shook his hand and said goodbye[00:04:22]
Ran out to the street[00:04:25]
When a bowling ball came down the road[00:04:27]
And knocked me off my feet[00:04:30]
A pay phone was ringing[00:04:32]
It just about blew my mind[00:04:34]
When I picked it up and said hello[00:04:36]
This foot came through the line[00:04:38]
Well by this time I was fed up[00:04:47]
At trying to make a stab[00:04:50]
At bringing back any help[00:04:52]
For my friends and Captain Arab[00:04:54]
I decided to flip a coin[00:04:57]
Like either heads or tails[00:04:59]
Would let me know but I should go[00:05:01]
Back to ship or back to tail[00:05:04]
So I hocked my sailor suit[00:05:06]
And I got a coin to flip[00:05:08]
It came up tails[00:05:11]
It rhymed with sails[00:05:12]
So I made it back to the ship[00:05:13]
Well I got back and took[00:05:19]
The parking ticket off the mast[00:05:21]
I was ripping it to shreds[00:05:23]
When this coastguard boat went past[00:05:26]
They asked me my name[00:05:28]
And I said Captain Kidd[00:05:31]
They believed me but[00:05:33]
They wanted to know[00:05:34]
What exactly that I did[00:05:35]
I said for the Pope of Eruke[00:05:37]
I was employed[00:05:41]
They let me go right away[00:05:42]
They were very paranoid[00:05:44]
Well the last I heard of Arab[00:05:52]
He was stuck on a whale[00:05:54]
That was married to the deputy[00:05:56]
Sheriff of the jail[00:05:59]
But the funniest thing was[00:06:01]
When I was leaving the bay[00:06:03]
I saw three ships a sailin[00:06:05]
They were all heading my way[00:06:08]
I asked the captain what his name was[00:06:10]
And how come he didn't drive a truck[00:06:12]
He said his name was Columbus[00:06:15]
I just said Good luck[00:06:17]
