| Lyrics: | by Bob Dylan
Dear landlord,
Please don't put a price on my soul.
My burden is
heavy,
My dreams are beyond control.
When that steamboat whistle blows,
I'm gonna
give you all I got to give,
And I do hope you receive it well,
Dependin' on the way you
feel that you live.
Dear landlord,
Please heed these words that I speak.
I know
you've suffered much,
But in this you are not so unique.
All of us, at times, we might
work too hard
To have it too fast and too much,
And anyone can fill his life up
With
things he can see but he just cannot touch.
Dear landlord,
Please don't dismiss my
case.
I'm not about to argue,
I'm not about to move to no other place.
Now, each of
us has his own special gift
And you know this was meant to be true,
And if you don't
underestimate me,
I won't underestimate you |
