| Lyrics: | (Bob Dylan)
Like the lion tears the flesh off of a man
so can a woman who passes herself off
as a male
They sang "Danny Boy" at his funeral and the Lord's Prayer
preacher talking 'bout
Christ betrayed
Like the earth just opened and swallowed him up
reached too high, was thrown
back to the ground
You know what they say about bein' nice to the right people on the way
up
sooner or later you gonna meet them comin' down
Oh, there ain't no comin' back when
your foot of pride come down
ain't no comin' back
Oh, no, comin' back when your foot of
pride come down
ain't no comin' back
They got a brother named James, don't forget faces
or names
sunken cheeks and his blood is mixed
He looked straight into the sun and said
revenge is mine
but he drinks, and drinks can be fixed
Sing me one more song, ha, about ya
love me to the moon and the stranger
and your fall by the sword love affair with Erroll
Flynn
In these times of compassion when conformity's in fashion
say, one more stupid thing
to me before the final nail is driven in
Oh, there ain't no comin' back when your foot of
pride come down
hey, hey, hey, hey
Oh, baby, ain't no comin' back when your foot of pride
come down
hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, ain't no comin' back
There's a retired businessman
named Red ...
cast down from heaven and he's out of his head
He feeds off of everyone that
he can touch
he said he only deals in cash or sells tickets to a plane crash
Not somebody
that you play around with much Miss Delilah is his
a Philistine is what she is, She'll do
wondrous works with your fate
Ah, Feed you coconut bread, spice buns in your bed
if you
don't mind sleepin' with your head face |
