Highway 61 — текст песни (Dr. Feelgood)

(bob dylan)



God said to abraham kill me a son

Abe said man, you must be putting me on

God said no - abe said what?

God said you can do what you want abe,

But next time you see me coming you better run

Abe said whered you want this killing done?

God said out on highway 61



Georgia sam he had a bloody nose

The wellfare department they wouldnt give him no clothes

He asked poor howard where can I go?

Howard says theres only one place I know

Sam said tell me quick man I got to run

Oh, howard he just pointed with his gun

He said thats way down highway 61



Mack the finger said to louis the king

i got fourty red-white-blue shoe strings

And a thousand telephones that dont ring

Do you know where I can get rid of these things?

Louis the king said let me think for a minute son

And he said yes, I think it can be easily done -

Just take everything down to highway 61



Well the 5th daughter on the 12th night

Told the 1st father that things werent right

My complexion she says is much too white

He says come here step into the light

He says mam youre right - let me tell

The 2nd mother this has been love

But the 2nd mother was with the 7th son

And they were both out on highway 61



Now the roving gambler he was very bored

Trying to create a next world war

He found a promoter who nearly fell on the floor

He said i never engaged in this kind of thing before

But yes, I think it can be very easily done

Well just put some bleachers out in the sun

And head it out on highway 61
