Lyrics for Sad-Eyed Lady Of The Lowlands by BOB DYLAN:
| | | Artist: | BOB DYLAN |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Sad-Eyed Lady Of The Lowlands | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 152 | | | | Lyrics: | With your mercury mouth in the missionary times
And your eyes like smoke and your prayers like
rhymes
And your silver cross, and your voice like chimes
Oh, who do they think could bury
you ?
With your pockets well protected at last
And your streetcar visions which you place on
the grass
And your flesh like silk, And you face like glass
Who among them do they think
could carry you ?
Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands
Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man
comes
My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums
Should I put them by your gate
Oh, sad-eyed
lady, should I wait ?
With your sheets like metal and your belt like lace
And your deck
of cards missing the jack and the ace
And your basement clothes and your hollow face
Who
among them can think he could outguess you ?
With your silhouette when the sunlight
dims
Into your eyes where the moonlight swims
And your match-book songs and your gypsy
hymns
Who among them would try to impress you ?
Sad-eyed lady of the lowlands
Where the
sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes
My warehouse eyes, my Arabian drums
Should I put
them by your gate
Oh, sad-eyed lady, should I wait ?
The kings of Tyrus with their
convict list
Are waiting in line for their geranium kiss
And you wouldn't know it would
happen like this
But who among them really wants just to kiss you ?
With your childhood
flames on your midnight rug
And your Spanish manners, and your mother's drugs
And your
cowboy mouth and your curfew plugs
Who among them do you think could resist you ?
Sad-eyed
lady of the lowlands
Where the sad-eyed prophet says that no man comes
My warehouse eyes, my
Arabian drums
Should I leave them by your gate
Oh, sad-eyed lady, should I wait | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
