Early Roman Kings - Bob Dylan

Early Roman Kings LRC歌词

[00:13.38]All the early Roman kings

[00:16.09]In their sharkskin suits

[00:19.05]Bow ties and buttons

[00:21.92]High top boots

[00:24.89]Drivin' the spikes in

[00:27.93]Blazin' the rails

[00:30.91]Nailed in their coffins

[00:33.75]In top hats and tails

[00:36.84]Fly away, little bird

[00:39.66]Fly away, flap your wings

[00:42.68]Fly by night

[00:45.51]Like the early Roman kings

[00:47.70]

[01:00.78]All the early roman kings

[01:03.33]In the early early morn

[01:06.32]Coming down the mountain

[01:09.03]Distributing the corn

[01:12.16]Speeding through the forest

[01:15.14]Racing down the track

[01:18.21]You try to get away

[01:21.06]They drag you back

[01:23.96]Tomorrow is Friday

[01:27.03]We'll see what it brings

[01:30.07]Everybody's talking

[01:33.04]Bout the early roman kings

[01:35.05]

[01:48.12]They're peddlers and they're meddlers

[01:50.74]They buy and they sell

[01:53.59]They destroyed your city

[01:56.47]They'll destroy you as well

[01:59.37]They're lecherous and treacherous

[02:02.38]Hell-bent for leather

[02:05.55]Each of 'em bigger

[02:08.40]Than all them put together

[02:11.55]Sluggers and muggers

[02:14.27]Wearing fancy gold rings

[02:17.31]All the women goin' crazy

[02:20.26]For the early Roman kings

[02:22.32]

[02:35.42]I can dress up your wounds

[02:37.96]With a blood-clotted rag

[02:40.90]I ain't afraid to make love

[02:43.72]To a ***** or a hag

[02:46.77]If you see me comin'

[02:50.56]And you're standing there

[02:53.59]Wave your handkerchief

[02:56.48]In the air

[02:59.39]I ain't dead yet

[03:02.25]Ma Bell still rings

[03:05.32]I keep my fingers crossed

[03:07.54]Like them early roman kings

[03:10.20]

[03:22.25]I can strip you of life

[03:25.04]Strip you of breath

[03:27.89]Ship you down

[03:31.00]To the house of death

[03:33.92]One day

[03:36.80]You will ask for me

[03:39.90]There'll be no one else

[03:42.76]That you'll wanna see

[03:45.96]Bring down my fiddle

[03:48.68]Tune up my strings

[03:51.94]I'm gonna break it wide open

[03:54.78]Like the early roman kings

[03:57.51]

[04:09.90]I was up on black mountain

[04:12.27]The day Detroit fell

[04:15.38]They killed 'em all off

[04:18.29]And they sent 'em to hell

[04:21.36]Ding dong daddy

[04:24.26]You're coming up short

[04:27.36]Gonna put you on trial

[04:30.15]In a Sicilian court

[04:33.24]I've had my fun

[04:36.16]I've had my flings

[04:39.15]Gonna shake em all down

[04:42.14]Like the early roman kings

[04:44.77]
