Текст песни «Bob Dylan - Absolutely Sweet Marie»

-b.dylan, circa.1966

well your railroad gate, you know i just cant jump it
sometimes it gets so hard to see
i just sitting here, beating on my trumpet
with all these promises you left for me
but where you are tonight, sweet marie?

well i waited for you when i was a half-sick
yes, i waited for you when you hated me
well i wai-aited for you inside of the frozen traffic
you, when you knew i had some toher place to be
now where are you tonight, sweet marie?

well anybody can be just like me, obviously
but then not again not too many can be like you, fortunately

well six white horses, that you did promise
were finally delivered down to the penitentary
but to live outside the law you must be honest
i know you always say that you'll agree
alright, so where are you tonight, sweet marie?

well i dont know how it happened, but the river boat captain, he knows my fate
but everybody else, even including yourself, they're just gonna have to wait

well, i got the fever down in my pockets
the persian drunkard, he follows me
yes i can take him to your house, but i cant unlock it
you see you forgot to leave me with the key
aww - where are you tonight, sweet marie?



i been in jail when all the mail showed
the man cant give his address out to bad company
and now i stand here looking at your yellowed railroad
in the ruins of your balcony
wondering where you are tonight, sweet marie?
