| Lyrics: | Words and Music by Bob Dylan)
Summer days, summer nights are gone
Summer days and
summer nights are gone
I know a place where there's still somethin' going on
I've
got a house on the hill, I got hogs out in the mud
I've got a house on the hill, I got hogs all
out in the mud
I've got a long haired woman, she got royal Indian blood
Everybody
get ready, lift up your glasses and sing
Everybody get ready, lift up your glasses and
sing
Well I'm standin' on the table, I'm proposin' a toast to the king
I'm driving
in the flats in a Cadillac car
The girls all say You're a worn out star
My pockets are
loaded, and I'm spending every dime
How can you say you love someone else, you know it's me
all the time
Well the fog's so thick you can't spy the land
Well the fog's so thick
that you can't even spy the land
What good are you anyway if you can't stand up to some old
businessman?
Weddin' bells are ringin' and the choir is beginning to sing
Yes, the
weddin' bells are ringin' and the choir's beginning to sing
What looks good in the day, at
night is another thing
She's looking in to my eyes, and she's a-holding my hand
She
looks in to my eyes, she's holding my hand
She say, you can't repeat the past,
I say You
can't? What do you mean you can't? Of course you can.
Where do you come from, where do
you go?
Sorry, that is nothing you would need to know
Well, my back's been to the wall so
long it seems like it's stuck
Why don't you break my heart one more time, just for good
luck
I got eight carburators and boys I'm usin' 'em all
Well, I got eight
carburators and boys I'm usin' 'em all
I'm short on gas, my motor's startin' to
stall
My dogs are barking, there must be someone around
My dogs are barking, there
must be someone around
I got my hammer ringin' pretty baby, but the nails ain't goin'
down
If you got something to say, speak or hold your peace
Well, if you got
something to say, speak now or hold your peace
If it's information you want, you can get it
from the police
Politician's got on his joggin' shoes
He must be runnin' for office,
got no time to lose
Suckin' the blood out of the genius of generosity
You been rollin'
your eyes, you been teasin' me
Standin' by God's river my soul's beginning to
shake
Standin' by God's river my soul's beginning to shake
I'm countin' on you, love, to
gimme a break
Well, I'm leaving in the morning, as soon as the dark clouds lift
Yes,
I'm leaving in the morning, just as soon as the dark clouds lift
I'm breakin' the roof, set
fire to the place as a partin' gift
Summer days, summer nights are gone
Summer days,
summer nights are gone
I know a place where there's still something goin' on |
