BOB DYLAN - I WANT YOU - LYRICS
The guilty undertaker signs
The lonesome organ grinder cries
The sliver saxophones say i should
Refuse you
Cracked bells and washed out horns
Blow into my face with scorn
It's not that way
I wasn't born to lose you
I want you
I want you
I want you
So bad
Drunken politicians leap
Under the streets where mothers weep
Saviours lying fast asleep
They wait for you
I wait for them to interrupt me
Drinking from my broken cup
And ask for me
To open up the gate for you
I want you
I want you
I want you
So bad
All my fathers, they've gone down
True love, they live without it
And all their daughters, they still put me down
Because I think about it
I returned to the Queen of Spades
Talked with my chambermaid
She knows that I'm not afraid to look at her
She's good to me
There's nothing she don't see
She knows where I would rather be
But that doesn't matter
Dancing child with his shiny suit
He spoke to me, I took his flute
No, I wasn't that cute to him
Was I?
I did it all because
He lied
Because he took you for a ride
Because time was on his side
Because I want you
I want you
I want you
So bad

@TheDarkLordEthan Who cares?

@PikPobedy - yeah, what's up with that? Is Bob Dylan himself powerless to stop Sony (or whoever) from taking down every single original Dylan song? What a lame system...
-
@fluffydolly You spelled classic wrong.

Bob Dylan I WANT YOU!

As for the lyrics, the first line should be "The guilty undertaker sighs" not SIGNS. What, you think he's doing ASL? You also leave out a lot of words and add others. "Shiny" suit? It's "Chinese suit." I get the idea you never even listened to this.

This is simply a terrific song. Dylan could not have done it any better.

It's still here, a gift to the ages, and a mysterious anachronism. Only Dylan can sing Dylan and only Dylan can cover him, as he does on Live At Buddhakan, a double vinyl of a performance in Japan, where, because of the language barrier, Bob sang the song as it was meant to be sung, percursed by its parody on Blond On Blond, decades earlier, an authentic wormhole

Shame how awful music is these days. I'll never forget the 50s-70s. Best period of time for music.
