| Lyrics: | Words and Music by Bob Dylan)
By and by, I'm breathin' a lover's sigh
While I'm
sittin' on my watch so I can be on time
I'm singin' love's praises with sugar coated
rhyme
By and by, on you I'm castin' my eye
I'm paintin' the town, swingin' my partner
around
Well I know who I can depend on, I know who to trust
I'm watchin' the road, I'm
studyin' the dust
I'm paintin' the town, makin' my last go-round
Well I'm scufflin'
and I'm shufflin' and I'm walkin' on briars
I'm not even aquainted with my own desires
I'm
rollin' slow, I'm doin' all I know
I'm tellin' myself I've found true happiness
That I
still got a dream that hasn't been repossessed
I'm rollin' slow goin' where the wild roses
grow
Well, the future for me is already a thing of the past
You were my first love
and you will be my last
Papa gone mad, Mama she's feelin' sad
Well, I'm gonna baptize you
in fire so you can sin no more
I wanna establish my rule through civil war
Gonna make you
see just how loyal and true a man can be |
