Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues

Текст песни BOB DYLAN - Just Like Tom Thumb&#039;s Blues <br/> When you&#039;re lost in the rain in Juarez<br />And it&#039;s Eastertime too<br />And your gravity fails<br />And negativity don&#039;t pull you through<br />Don&#039;t put on any airs<br />When you&#039;re down on Rue Morgue Avenue<br />They got some hungry women there <br />( )<br />And they really make a mess outa you.<br /><br />Now if you see Saint Annie<br />Please tell her thanks a lot<br />I cannot move<br />My fingers are all in a knot<br />I don&#039;t have the strength<br />To get up and take another shot<br />And my best friend, my doctor<br />Won&#039;t even say what it is I&#039;ve got.<br /><br />Sweet Melinda<br />The peasants call her the goddess of gloom<br />She speaks good English<br />And she invites you up into her room<br />And you&#039;re so kind<br />And careful not to go to her too soon<br />And she takes your voice<br />And leaves you howling at the moon.<br /><br />Up on Housing Project Hill<br />It&#039;s either fortune or fame<br />You must pick up one or the other<br />Though neither of them are to be what they claim<br />If you&#039;re lookin&#039; to get silly<br />You better go back to from where you came<br />Because the cops don&#039;t need you<br />And man they expect the same.<br />Now all the authorities<br />They just stand around and boast<br />How they blackmailed the sergeant-at-arms<br />Into leaving his post<br />And picking up Angel who<br />Just arrived here from the coast<br />Who looked so fine at first<br />But left looking just like a ghost.<br /><br />I started out on burgundy<br />But soon hit the harder stuff<br />Everybody said they&#039;d stand behind me<br />When the game got rough<br />But the joke was on me<br />There was nobody even there to bluff<br />I&#039;m going back to New York City<br />I do believe I&#039;ve had enough.<br />
