Knockin' On Heaven's Door
B.Dylan

Mama take this badge from me
I can't use it anymore
It's getting dark too dark to see
Feel i'm knockin' on heaven's door

Chrous:
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door (repeat 3x)

Mama wipe this blood from my face
I'm sick and tired of all this war
There's a long hard feelin' and it's hard to chase
Feel i'm knockin' on heaven's door

Chorus

Mama put these guns to the ground
I can't shoot them anymore
Theres a long black train and it's comin' round
Feels like knockin' on heaven's door

Chorus 

What'll you do when you get lonely
And nobody's waiting by your side?
You've been running and hiding much too long
You know it's just your foolish pride.

Layla, you've got me on my knees.
Layla, I'm begging, darling please.
Layla, darling won't you ease my worried mind.

I tried to give you consolation
When your old man had let you down.
Like a fool, I fell in love with you,
Turned my whole world upside down.

Chorus

Let's make the best of the situation
Before I finally go insane.
Please don't say we'll never find a way
And tell me all my love's in vain.

Chorus 

Well, we all need someone we can lean on
And if you want it, well, you can lean on me
Yeah, we all need someone we can lean on
And if you want it, well, you can lean on me

She said my breasts, they will always be open
Baby, you can rest your weary head right on me
And there will always be a space in my parking lot
When you need a little coke and sympathy

Yeah, we all need someone we can dream on
And if you want it, baby, well you can dream on me
Yeah, we all need someone we can cream on
Yeah, and if you want to, well, you can cream on me

I was dreamin' of a steel guitar engagement
When you drank my health in scented Jasmine tea
But you knifed me in my dirty filthy basement
With that jaded, faded, junky nurse
Oh, what pleasant company

Don't we all need someone we can feed on
Yeah, and if you want it, well, you can feed on me
Hey, take my arm, take my leg, oh baby, don't you take my head
Yeah, we all need someone we can bleed on
Yeah, and if you want it, baby, you can bleed on me
Yeah, we all need someone we can bleed on
Yeah, yeah, and if you want it, baby, why don't you bleed on me
All over

Bleed it on rider, bleed it on rider, bleed it on rider
You can bleed all over me
Bleed it on rider, bleed it on rider, you can be my rider
You can come all over me
Bleed it on rider, bleed it on rider, bleed it on rider
You can come all over me
Bleed it on rider, let it come all over me
Bleed it on rider, bleed it on rider 

Levon wears his war wound like a crown
He calls his child Jesus'cause he likes the name
And he sends him in the finest school in town.

Levon, Levon likes his money
He makes a lot they say
Spends his days counting
In a garage by the motorway.

He was born a pauper
to a pawn on a Christmas Day
When the New York Times
Say God is dead and war's begun.
Alvin Tostig Has a son today.

And he shall be Levon
And he shall be a good man.
And he shall be Levon.
In tradition with the family plan
And he shall be Levon.
And he shall be a good man.
He shall be Levon.

Levon sells cartoon balloons in town.
His family business thrives.
Jesus blows up balloons all day, sits on the porch swing watching them fly.
And, Jesus he wants to go to Venus.
Leave Levon far behind.
Take a balloon and go sailing,
While Levon, Levon slowly dies.

And he shall be Levon
And he shall be a good man.
He shall be Levon.... 

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
People'd call, say "Beware doll, you're bound to fall"
You thought they were all kiddin you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hangin out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't seem so proud
About having to be scrounging for your next meal
How does it feel, How does it feel
To be without a home, like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?
You've gone to the finest school all right, Miss Lonely
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
And nobody has ever taught you how to live on the street
And now you find out you're gonna have to get used to it
You said you'd never compromise
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
He's not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And ask him do you want to make a deal?
How does it feel, How does it feel
To be on your own, with no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?
You never turned around to see the frowns on the jugglers and the clowns
When they all come down and did tricks for you
You never understood that it ain't no good
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
You used to ride on the chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
Ain't it hard when you discover that
He really wasn't where it's at
After he took from you everything he could steal
How does it feel, How does it feel
To be on your own, with no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?
Princess on the steeple and all the pretty people
They're drinkin' thinkin that they got it made
Exchanging all kinds of precious gifts and things
But you'd better lift your diamond ring, you better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
When you ain't got nothin you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you got no secrets to conceal
How does it feel, How does it feel
To be on your own, with no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone? 

Come, they told me, pa rum pa pum pum
A newborn king to see, pa rum pa pum pum
Our finest gifts we bring, pa rum pa pum pum
To lay before the king, pa rum pa pum pum
Rum a pum pum, rum pa pum pum
So to honor him, pa rum pa pum pum
When we come

Baby Jesus, pa rum pa pum pum
I am a poor boy, too, pa rum pa pum pum
I have no gift to bring, pa rum pa pum pum
That's fit to give a king, pa rum pa pum pum
Rum pa pum pum, rum pa pum pum
Shall I play for you pa rum pa pum pum
On my drum

Yoi da adash, pa rum pa pum pum
The ass and lamb kept time, pa rum pa pum pum
I played my drum for him, pa rum pa pum pum
I played my best for him, pa rum pa pum pum
Rum pa pum pum rum pa pum pum
Then he smiled at me pa rum pa pum pum
Me and my drum, me and my drum 

I got to run to keep from hiding
And I'm bound to keep on riding
And I've got one more silver dollar
But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no
Not gonna let them catch the midnight rider

I don't own the clothes I wear
And the road goes on forever
And I've got one more silver dollar
But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no
Not gonna let them catch the midnight rider

I've gone past the point of caring
About whose bed I'll soon be sharing
And I've got one more silver dollar
But I'm not gonna let them catch me, no
Not gonna let them catch the midnight rider 

And here's to you, Mrs. Robinson
Jesus loves you more than you will know (Wo, wo, wo)
God bless you please, Mrs. Robinson
Heaven holds a place for those who pray
(Hey, hey, hey...hey, hey, hey)

We'd like to know a little bit about you for our files
We'd like to help you learn to help yourself
Look around you, all you see are sympathetic eyes
Stroll around the grounds until you feel at home

And here's to you, Mrs. Robinson
Jesus loves you more than you will know (Wo, wo, wo)
God bless you please, Mrs. Robinson
Heaven holds a place for those who pray
(Hey, hey, hey...hey, hey, hey)

Hide it in a hiding place where no one ever goes
Put it in your pantry with your cupcakes
It's a little secret, just the Robinsons' affair
Most of all, you've got to hide it from the kids

Coo, coo, ca-choo, Mrs Robinson
Jesus loves you more than you will know (Wo, wo, wo)
God bless you please, Mrs. Robinson
Heaven holds a place for those who pray
(Hey, hey, hey...hey, hey, hey)

Sitting on a sofa on a Sunday afternoon
Going to the candidates debate
Laugh about it, shout about it
When you've got to choose
Ev'ry way you look at it, you lose

Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio
A nation turns its lonely eyes to you (Woo, woo, woo)
What's that you say, Mrs. Robinson
Joltin' Joe has left and gone away
(Hey, hey, hey...hey, hey, hey) 

I'm gonna tell you how it's gonna be
You're gonna give your love to me
I'm gonna love you night and day
Well love is love and not fade away
Well love is love and not fade away

My love bigger than a Cadillac
I try to show it and you're drivin' me back
Your love for me has got to be real
For you to know just how I feel
Love is real and not fade away
Well love is real and not fade away

I'm gonna tell you how it's gonna be
You're gonna give your love to me
Love to last more than one day
Well love is love and not fade away
Well love is love and not fade away
Well love is love and not fade away
Love, love is love and not fade away
Not fade away
Not fade away

It was the third of september
that day I´ll always remember,
yes I will.
´Cause that was the day that my daddy died,
I never got a chance to see him.
Never heard nothin´ but bad things about him.
Mama I´m depending on you,
tell me the truth.
Mama looked up an said:

Chorus:
Papa was a rolling stone, son.
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
and when he died all he left us alone.

Mama, is it true what they say,
that papa never worked a day in his life ?
And mama, there´s some bad talk goin´ round
that papa had three outside children and an other wife,
ain´t that right, hey.
Hears some talk about papa doin´ some store front preachin´
talkin´ about savin´ souls and all the time leachin´
Dealin´ in dirt and stealin´ in the name of the Lord.
Mama looked up and said son:

Chorus: -

I heard papa call himself a jack of all trades.
Tell me is that what sent papa to an early grave ?
Folks say papa would beg, borrow or steal to pay his bills.
Hey, mama, folks say papa never was much on thinkin´.
Spend most of his time chasin´ women and drinkin´,
Mama I´m depending on you to tell me the truth.
Mama looked up and said son:

Chorus: - 

Come on, come on, come on, come on now

Didn't I make you feel, oh baby, like you were the only one
Baby didn't I give you nearly everything that a woman possibly can
Honey you know that I did
Cos each time I tell myself that I, I think I've had enough
Oh, I am gonna show you baby, that a woman can be tough

I want you to come on, come on, come on, come on
And take it, take another little piece of my heart now baby
Break it, break another little bit of my heart now darling
Yeah, have a, have another little piece of my heart now baby
Cos you know you got it and it makes you feel good
Yes it does

Yeah you're out on the street, babe you're looking good
Deep down in your heart, you know that it ain't right
No, no
Cos you never never never hear me when I cry out at night
Honey I cry all the time
And each time I tell myself that I can stand the pain
Oh you take me in your arms, I sing it once again

I want you to come on, come on, come on, come on
And take it, take another little piece of my heart now baby
Break it, break another little bit of my heart now darling, yeah
Have a, have another little piece of my heart now baby
Cos you know you got it, it makes you feel --
It makes you feel so good
Babe makes you feel so, it makes you wow
You know sometimes it makes you feel so... good

[story]

Come on, come on, come on, come on
And take it, take another little piece of my heart now baby
Break it, break another little bit of my heart now darling
Darling yeah, have a, have another little piece of my heart now baby

Pretty woman walking down the street, pretty woman the kind I like to meet
Pretty woman, I don't believe you, you're not the truth, no one could look as good as you

Pretty woman won't you pardon me, pretty woman couldn't help but see
Pretty woman, you look lovely as can be, are you lonely just like me?

Chorus
Pretty woman walk a while, pretty woman talk a while
Pretty woman give your smile to me
Pretty woman yeah, yeah, yeah, pretty woman look my way
Pretty woman say you'll stay with me
Cause I need you, I'll treat you right
Come to/with me baby, be mine tonight

Pretty woman don't walk on by, pretty woman don't make me cry
Pretty woman, don't walk away, hey. Okay. If that's the way it must be okay

I guess I'll go on home it's late, there'll be another night, but wait!
What do I see? Is she walking back to me...?
Yeah, she's walking back to me... Oh, pretty woman 

I don't care if you never come home,
I don't mind if you just keep on
Rowing away on a distant sea,
'Cause I don't love you and you don't love me.

You cause a commotion when you come to town;
You give 'em a smile and they melt.
Having lovers and friends is all good and fine,
But I don't like yours and you don't like mine.

La la, la la la la la.
La la, la la la la la.

I don't care what you do at night,
Oh, and I don't care how you get your delights.
I'm gonna leave you alone, I'll just let it be,
I don't love you and you don't love me.

I got a problem. Can you relate?
I got a woman calling love hate.
We made a vow we'd always be friends.
How could we know that promises end?

La la, la la la la la.
La la, la la la la la.

I tried to love you for years upon years,
You refuse to take me for real.
It's time you saw what I want you to see,
And I'd still love you if you'd just love me.

Chorus

La la, la la la la la.
La la, la la la la la.
La la, la la la la la.
La la, la la la la la. 

Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the Man every night and day
But I never lost a minute of sleepin'
Worryin' 'bout the way things might have been

(chorus)
Big wheel keep on turnin'
Proud Mary keep on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on the river

Cleaned a lot of plates in Memphis
Pumped a lot of pain down in New Orleans
But I never saw the good side of a city
'Til I hitched a ride on the riverboat queen

(repeat chorus)

If you come down to the River
Bet you're gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry 'cause you have no money
People on the river are happy to give

(repeat chorus) 

What you want, baby, I got.
What you need, you know I got it.
All I askin' is for a little respect
when you come home, baby.
When you come home,
respect.

I ain't gonna do you wrong while you gone,
I ain't gonna do you wrong 'cause I don't wanna.
All I askin' is for a little respect
when you come home, baby.
When you come home,
respect.

I'm out to give you all my money
but all I'm askin in return, honey,
is to give me my proper respect
when you get home, yeah baby,
when you get home.

Ooh, your kisses sweeter than honey
but guess what, so here's my money.
All I want you to do for me is give me some here
when you get home, yeah baby,
when you get home.

R-E-S-P-E-C-T,
find out what it means to me.
R-E-S-P-E-C-T,
Hey Boy, T-C-B.

A little respect ... 

Verse1 :
Well here we are, and here we are, and here we go,
All aboard and we're hitting the road,
Here we go-oh,
Rockin all over the world.

Chorus :
And I like it, I like it, I like it, I like it,
I la la la like it, la la la like,
Here we go-oh, rockin' all over the world.

Verse 2
I'm gonna tell your mamma what you're gonna do,
Come on out, put your dancing shoes,
Here we go-oh,
Rockin all over the world.

Repeat Chorus - 

You can dance every dance
With the guy who gives you the eye
Let him hold you tight

You can smile every smile
For the man who held your hand
Neath the pale moonlight.

Chorus:
So don't forget who's taking you home
And in whose arms you're gonna be
So darling, save the last dance for me

You can dance, go and carry on
Till the night is gone, go and have your fun
Laugh and sing but while we're apart
Don't give your heart to just anyone

Chorus

And don't you know I love you so
Can't you feel it when we touch
I will never never let you go
'Cause I love you oh so much

And you can dance, go and carry on
Till the night has gone
Go and have your fun
You must tell him no

Chorus 

Seven days, seven more days she'll be comin'
I'll be waiting at the station for her to arrive
Seven more days, all I gotta do is survive.

She been gone ever since I been a child
Ever since I seen her smile, I ain't forgotten her eyes.
She had a face that could outshine the sun in the skies.

I been good, I been good while I been waitin'
Maybe guilty of hesitatin', I just been holdin' on
Seven more days, all that'll be gone.

There's kissing in the valley,
Thieving in the alley,
Fighting every inch of the way.
Trying to be tender
With somebody I remember
In a night that's always brighter'n the day.

Seven days, seven more days that are connected
Just like I expected, she'll be comin' on forth,
My beautiful comrade from the north.

There's kissing in the valley,
Thieving in the alley,
Fighting every inch of the way.
Trying to be tender
With somebody I remember
In a night that's always brighter'n the day. 

Shattered, shattered
Love and hope and sex and dreams
Are still surviving on the street
Look at me -- I'm in tatters!
I'm a shattered.
Shattered

Friends are so alarming
And my lover's never charming
Life's just a cocktail party - on the street
Big Apple
People dressed in plastic bags
Directing traffic -
Some kind of fashion
Shattered

Laughter, joy, and loneliness and sex and sex and sex and sex
Look at me - I'm in tatters I 'm a shattered
Shattered

All this chitter-chatter, chitter-chatter, chitter-chatter 'bout
Shmatta, shmatta, shmatta -- I can't give it away on 7th Avenue
This town's been wearing tatters (shattered, shattered)
Work and work for love and sex
Ain't you hungry for success, success, success, success
Does it matter? (Shattered) Does it matter?
I'm shattered. Shattered.

Ahhh, look at me - I'm a shattered
I'm a shattered
Look at me- I'm a shattered, yeah

Pride and joy and greed and sex
That's what makes our town the best
Pride and joy and dirty dreams and still surviving on the street
and look at me - i'm in tatters, yeah
I've been battered, what does it matter
does it matter, uh-huh
does it matter, uh-huh, I'm a shattered

Don't you know the crime rate is going up, up, up, up, up,
To live in this town you must be tough, tough, tough, tough, tough!
You got rats on the west side
bed bugs uptown
What a mess this town's in tatters I've been shattered
My brain's been battered - splattered - all over Manhatten

Uh-huh, This town's full of money grabbers
Go ahead-
Bite the Big Apple, don't mind the maggots, huh
Shadoobie, My brain's been battered
My friends they come around they
Flatter, flatter, flatter, flatter, flatter, flatter, flatter
Pile it up, pile it high on the platter.
