Tombstone Blues (墓碑布鲁斯) (mono version) - Bob Dylan (鲍勃·迪伦)[00:00:00]

The sweet pretty things are in bed now of course[00:00:10]

The city fathers they're trying to endorse[00:00:14]

The reincarnation of paul revere's horse[00:00:18]

But the town has no need to be nervous[00:00:22]

The ghost of belle starr she hands down her wits[00:00:28]

To jezebel the nun she violently knits[00:00:32]

A bald wig for jack the ripper who sits[00:00:35]

At the head of the chamber of commerce[00:00:39]

Mama's in the fact'ry[00:00:43]

She ain't got no shoes[00:00:45]

Daddy's in the alley[00:00:47]

He's lookin' for the fuse[00:00:49]

I'm in the streets[00:00:51]

With the tombstone blues[00:00:53]

The hysterical bride in the penny arcade[00:01:01]

Screaming she moans I've just been made[00:01:06]

Then sends out for the doctor who pulls down the shade[00:01:09]

Says my advice is to not let the boys in[00:01:13]

Now the medicine man comes and he shuffles inside[00:01:20]

He walks with a swagger and he says to the bride[00:01:24]

Stop all this weeping swallow your pride[00:01:27]

You will not die it's not poison[00:01:31]

Mama's in the fact'ry[00:01:36]

She ain't got no shoes[00:01:38]

Daddy's in the alley[00:01:39]

He's lookin' for the fuse[00:01:41]

I'm in the streets[00:01:43]

With the tombstone blues[00:01:45]

Well john the baptist after torturing a thief[00:01:57]

Looks up at his hero the commander in chief[00:02:01]

Saying tell me great hero but please make it brief[00:02:05]

Is there a hole for me to get sick in[00:02:09]

The commander in chief answers him while chasing a fly[00:02:14]

Saying death to all those who would whimper and cry[00:02:18]

And dropping a bar bell he points to the sky[00:02:22]

Saving the sun's not yellow it's chicken[00:02:25]

Mama's in the fact'ry[00:02:30]

She ain't got no shoes[00:02:31]

Daddy's in the alley[00:02:33]

He's lookin' for the fuse[00:02:35]

I'm in the streets[00:02:37]

With the tombstone blues[00:02:39]

The king of the philistines his soldiers to save[00:02:47]

Put jawbones on their tombstones and flatters their graves[00:02:52]

Puts the pied pipers in prison and fattens the slaves[00:02:55]

Then sends them out to the jungle[00:02:59]

Gypsy davey with a blowtorch he burns out their camps[00:03:06]

With his faithful slave pedro behind him he tramps[00:03:10]

With a fantastic collection of stamps[00:03:14]

To win friends and influence his uncle[00:03:18]

Mama's in the fact'ry[00:03:23]

She ain't got no shoes[00:03:24]

Daddy's in the alley[00:03:27]

He's lookin' for the fuse[00:03:28]

I'm in the streets[00:03:30]

With the tombstone blues[00:03:32]

The geometry of innocence flesh on the bone[00:03:46]

Causes galileo's math book to get thrown[00:03:51]

At delilah who sits worthlessly alone[00:03:54]

But the tears on her cheeks are from laughter[00:03:58]

Now I wish I could give brother bill his great thrill[00:04:06]

I would set him in chains at the top of the hill[00:04:09]

Then send out for some pillars and cecil b demille[00:04:13]

He could die happily ever after[00:04:17]

Mama's in the fact'ry[00:04:22]

She ain't got no shoes[00:04:23]

Daddy's in the alley[00:04:25]

He's lookin' for the fuse[00:04:27]

I'm in the streets[00:04:29]

With the tombstone blues[00:04:31]

Where ma raney and beethoven once unwrapped their bed roll[00:04:52]

Tuba players now rehearse around the flagpole[00:04:56]

And the national bank at a profit sells road maps for the soul[00:05:00]

To the old folks home and the college[00:05:04]

Now I wish I could write you a melody so plain[00:05:11]

That could hold you dear lady from going insane[00:05:14]

That could ease you and cool you and cease the pain[00:05:18]

Of your useless and pointless knowledge[00:05:22]

Mama's in the fact'ry[00:05:26]

She ain't got no shoes[00:05:28]

Daddy's in the alley[00:05:30]

He's lookin' for the fuse[00:05:32]

I'm in the streets[00:05:34]

With the tombstone blues[00:05:36]
