Subterranean Homesick Blues
Lyricist:Bob Dylan
Johnny's in the basement Mixing up the medicine I'm on the pavement Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat Badge out, laid off Says he's got a bad cough Wants to get it paid off
Look out kid It's somethin' you did
God knows when But you're doin' it again You better duck down the alley way Lookin' for a new friend
The man in the coon-skin cap In the big pen Wants eleven dollar bills But you only got ten
Maggie comes fleet foot Face full of black soot Talkin' that the heat put Plants in the bed but
The phone's tapped anyway Maggie says that many say They must bust in early May Orders from the D. A.
Look out kid They keep it all hid
Walk on your tip toes Don't try, 'No Doz' Better stay away from those Carry around a fire hose
Keep a clean nose Watch the plain clothes You don't need a weather man To know which way the wind blows Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Oh, get sick and get well Hang around a ink well Hang bell, hard to tell If anything is goin' to sell
Try hard, get barred Get back, write braille Get jailed, jump bail Join the army, if you fail
Look out kid You're gonna get hit
By losers, cheaters Six-time users Hang around the theaters
Girl, by the whirlpool Lookin' for a new fool Don't follow leaders Watch the parkin' meters
Ah, get born, keep warm Short pants, romance, learn to dance Get dressed, get blessed Try to be a success
Please her, please him, buy gifts Don't steal, don't lift Twenty years of schoolin' And they put you on the day shift
Look out kid Don't matter what you did
Jump down a manhole Light yourself a candle Don't wear sandals Try to avoid the scandals
Don't wanna be a bum You better chew gum The pump don't work 'Cause the vandals took the handles
