Goodbye Jimmy Reed

[00:00.000] 作曲 : Bob Dylan
[00:01.000] 作词 : Bob Dylan
[00:07.755] I live on a street named after a Saint
[00:12.175] Women in the churches wear powder and paint
[00:16.978] Where the Jews and Catholics and the Muslim all pray
[00:21.844] I can tell they're praying from a mile away
[00:26.523] Goodbye Jimmy Reed, Jimmy Reed indeed
[00:30.930] Give me that old time religion, it's just what I need
[00:40.719] For thine is kingdom, the power, the glory
[00:46.331] Go tell it down the mountain, go tell the real story
[00:51.084] Tell it in that straightforward, puritanical tone
[00:55.711] In the mystic hours when a person's alone
[01:00.662] Goodbye Jimmy Reed, godspeed
[01:05.446] Thump on the bible, proclaim a creed
[01:20.519] You won't amount to much, the people all said
[01:25.295] 'Cause I didn't play guitar behind my head
[01:29.948] Never pandered, never acted proud
[01:34.946] Never took of my shoes, throw 'em in the crowd
[01:39.516] Goodbye Jimmy Reed, goodbye, goodnight
[01:44.290] Put a jewel in your crown and put out the lights
[01:49.319] They threw everything at me, everything in the book
[01:59.254] I had nothing to fight with but a butcher's hook
[02:04.121] They had no pity, they never lend a hand
[02:13.758] I can't sing a song that I don't understand
[02:18.350] Goodbye Jimmy Reed, goodbye, good luck
[02:23.249] I can't play the record 'cause my needle got stuck
[02:33.769] Transparent woman in a transparent dress
[02:38.362] Suits you well, I must confess
[02:43.241] I'll break open your grapes, I'll suck out the juice
[02:47.925] I need you like my head needs a noose
[02:52.733] Goodbye Jimmy Reed, goodbye and so long
[02:57.615] I thought I could resist her but I was so wrong
[03:12.763] God be with you, brother dear
[03:17.174] If you don't mind me asking what brings you here?
[03:21.941] Oh, nothing much, I'm just looking for the man
[03:26.776] Need to see where he's lying in this lost land
[03:31.532] Goodbye Jimmy Reed, and everything within ya
[03:36.358] Can't you hear me calling from down in Virginia?
