Bye And Bye — текст песни (Bob Dylan)

Bye and bye, I`m breathin` a lover`s sigh
I`m sittin` on my watch so I can be on time
I`m singin` love`s praises with sugar-coated rhyme
Bye and bye, on you I`m casting my eye

I`m paintin` the town - swinging my partner around
I know who I can depend on, I know who to trust
I`m watchin` the roads, I`m studying the dust
I`m paintin` the town, making my last go-round

Well, I`m scufflin` and I`m shufflin` and I`m walkin` on briars
I`m not even acquainted with my own desires

I`m rollin` slow - I`m doing all I know
I`m tellin` myself I found true happiness
That I`ve still got a dream that hasn`t been repossessed
I`m rollin` slow, goin` where the wild roses grow

Well the future for me is already a thing of the past
You were my first love and you will be my last

Papa gone mad, mamma, she`s feeling sad
I`m gonna baptize you in fire so you can sin no more
I`m gonna establish my rule through civil war
Gonna make you see just how loyal and true a man can be
