Visions of Johanna (Live) - Old Crow Medicine Show[00:00:00]
Written by:Bob Dylan[00:00:02]
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks[00:00:09]
When you're trying to be so quiet[00:00:13]
We sit here stranded though we're all doing our best to deny it[00:00:20]
And Louise holds a handful of rain tempting you to defy it[00:00:29]
Lights flicker from the opposite loft[00:00:39]
In this room the heat pipes just cough[00:00:44]
The country music station plays soft[00:00:49]
But there's nothing really nothing to turn off[00:00:52]
Just Louise and her lover who so entwined[00:00:58]
And these visions of Johanna that conquer my mind[00:01:08]
In the empty lots where the ladies play blind man's bluff with the key chain[00:01:20]
And the all night girls they whisper of escapades out on the D train[00:01:30]
You can hear the night watchman click his flashlight[00:01:39]
Ask himself if it's him or them that's insane[00:01:42]
And Louise she's all right she's just near[00:01:49]
She's delicate and seems like veneer[00:01:54]
But she just makes it all too concise and too clear[00:01:58]
That Johanna's not here[00:02:02]
The ghost of electricity howls in the bones of her face[00:02:08]
Where these visions of Johanna have not taken my place[00:02:18]
Now little boy lost he takes himself so seriously[00:02:30]
He brags of his misery he likes to live dangerously[00:02:40]
And when bringing her name up[00:02:49]
He speaks of a farewell kiss to me[00:02:52]
He's sure got a lotta gall to be so useless and all[00:02:59]
Muttering small talk at the wall while I'm in the hall[00:03:09]
Oh how can I explain[00:03:18]
It's so hard to get on[00:03:22]
And these visions of Johanna they kept me up past the dawn[00:03:28]
Inside the museums infinity goes up on trial[00:03:40]
Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after awhile[00:03:50]
But Mona Lisa must have had the highway blues[00:03:59]
You can tell by the way she smiles[00:04:03]
See the primitive wallflower freeze[00:04:09]
When the jelly-faced women all sneeze[00:04:14]
Hear the one with the mustache say jeez[00:04:19]
I can't find my knees[00:04:22]
Oh jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule[00:04:29]
But these visions of Johanna they make it all seem so cruel[00:04:38]
The peddler now speaks to the countess who's pretending to care for him[00:05:19]
Saying name me someone that's not a parasite[00:05:28]
And I'll go out and say a prayer for him[00:05:31]
But like Louise always says[00:05:38]
You can't look at much can you man[00:05:40]
As she herself prepares for him[00:05:42]
And Madonna she still has not showed[00:05:47]
We see this empty cage not corrode[00:05:52]
The fiddler he now steps to the road[00:05:57]
He writes everything's been returned which was owed[00:06:01]
On the back of the fish truck that loads[00:06:06]
While my conscience explodes[00:06:10]
The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain[00:06:16]
And these visions of Johanna are now all that remain[00:06:25]
