Tin Angel - Bob Dylan

Tin Angel LRC歌词

[00:14.43]It was late last night when the boss came home

[00:18.11]To wander early his mansion and a desolate throne

[00:21.73]Servant said boss the ladies gone

[00:25.03]She left this morning just before dawn

[00:28.83]

[00:32.20]You got something to tell me, tell it to me man

[00:35.65]Come to the point as straight as you can

[00:39.27]Old henry lee chief of the clan

[00:42.73]Came riding through the woods and took her by the hand

[00:46.89]

[00:50.11]The boss he lay back flat on his bed

[00:53.35]He cursed the heat and he clutched his head

[00:56.88]He pondered the future of his fate

[01:00.53]To wait another day would be far too late

[01:04.32]

[01:08.03]Go fetch me my coat and my tie

[01:11.17]And the cheapest labour that money can buy

[01:14.77]Saddle me up my buckskin mare

[01:18.35]If you see me go by put up a prayer

[01:22.40]

[01:25.72]Well they rode all night and they rode all day

[01:29.13]Eastward long on the broad highway

[01:32.61]His spirit was tired and his vision was bent

[01:36.28]His men deserted him and onward he went

[01:39.95]

[01:43.14]He came to a place where the land was dull

[01:47.00]His poor head pounding in his skull

[01:50.24]Heavy heart was racked with pain

[01:53.91]Insomnia raging in his brain

[01:57.92]

[02:01.27]Well he threw down his helmet and his cross handle sword

[02:04.63]He renounced his faith he denied his lord

[02:08.27]Crawled on his belly put his ear to the wall

[02:11.63]One way or another put an end to it all

[02:15.94]

[02:19.20]He leaned down cut the electric wire

[02:22.55]Stared into the flames and he snorted the fire

[02:26.22]Peered through the darkness caught a glimpse of the two

[02:29.76]Hard to tell for certain who was who

[02:33.48]

[02:36.85]He lowered himself down on a golden chain

[02:40.44]His nerves were quickening every vein

[02:43.86]His knuckles were bloody he sucked in the air

[02:47.25]He ran his fingers through his greasy hair

[02:51.43]

[02:54.71]They looked at each other and their glasses clinked

[02:57.99]One single unit inseparably linked

[03:01.51]Got a strange premonition there's a man close by

[03:05.23]Don't worry about him he wouldn't harm a fly

[03:09.20]

[03:12.44]From behind the curtain the boss crossed the floor

[03:15.90]He moved his feet and he bolted the door

[03:19.42]Shadows hiding the lines in his face

[03:22.75]With all the nobility of an ancient race

[03:27.11]

[03:30.16]She turned she was startled by a look of surprise

[03:33.60]With the hatred that could hit the skies

[03:36.98]You're a reckless fool I could see it in your eyes

[03:40.54]To come this way was by no means wise

[03:45.24]

[03:48.39]Get up stand up you greedy lipped wench

[03:51.47]And cover your face with some other consequence

[03:54.81]You are making my heart feel sick

[03:58.27]Put your clothes on double quick

[04:02.20]

[04:05.84]Sill boy you think me a saint

[04:08.96]To listen no more to your words of complaint

[04:12.67]You've given me nothing but the sweetest lies

[04:16.36]Now hold your tongue and feed your eyes

[04:20.40]

[04:23.47]Id have given you the stars and the planets too

[04:27.02]What good are these things to you

[04:30.47]By the heart if not the knee

[04:33.83]Or never again this world you see

[04:39.19]

[04:41.18]Oh please let not your heart be cold

[04:44.51]This man is dearer to me than gold

[04:48.09]Oh my dear you must be blind

[04:51.60]He's a gutless ape with a worthless mind

[04:56.07]

[04:58.98]You've had your way too long with me

[05:02.34]Now its me who will determine how things will be

[05:05.94]Tried to escape he cussed and cursed

[05:09.45]You'll have to try get passed me first

[05:13.56]

[05:17.00]I dared not let your passion rule

[05:20.19]You think my heart the heart of a fool

[05:23.84]And you sir you can not deny

[05:27.16]You made a monkey of me for what and for why

[05:31.16]

[05:34.54]Ill have no more of this insulting chat

[05:38.05]The devil can have you I'll see to that

[05:41.62]Look sharp or step aside

[05:45.06]Or in the cradle you'll wish you died

[05:49.68]

[05:52.48]The gun went boom and the shot rang clear

[05:55.67]The first bullet grazed his ear

[05:59.68]Second ball went right straight in

[06:02.82]And he bent in the middle like a twisted bin

[06:07.10]

[06:09.96]He crawled to the corner and he lowered his head

[06:13.41]He grabbed the chair and he grabbed the bed

[06:18.08]It would take more than needle and thread

[06:21.52]Bleeding from the mouth he's as good as dead

[06:25.49]

[06:28.60]You shot my husband down you fiend

[06:32.22]Husband what, husband what the hell do you mean

[06:35.47]He was man of strife a man of sin

[06:38.87]I cut him down and I throw him to the wind

[06:43.10]

[06:49.08]Hear this she said with angry breath

[06:52.32]You too shall meet the lord of death

[06:55.49]It was I who brought your soul to life

[06:59.20]And she raised her robe and she drew out a knife

[07:03.07]

[07:06.66]His face was hard and caked with sweat

[07:10.25]His arms ached and his hands were wet

[07:13.76]You're a murderous woman and bloody wife

[07:17.18]If you don't mind ill have the knife

[07:21.47]

[07:24.63]We're two of a kind and our blood runs hot

[07:27.95]But we're no way similar in body or thought

[07:31.14]All husbands are good men is all I knew

[07:34.68]Then she pierced him to the heart and his blood did flow

[07:39.01]

[07:42.41]His knees went limp and he reached for the door

[07:45.76]His doom was sealed he slipped to the floor

[07:49.17]He whispered in her ear this is all your fault

[07:52.82]My fighting days have come to a halt

[07:56.93]

[08:00.14]She touched his lips and kissed his cheek

[08:03.44]He tried to speak but his breath was weak

[08:07.02]You die for me I will die for you

[08:10.50]She put the blade to her heart and she ran it though

[08:14.43]

[08:17.66]All three lovers together in a heap

[08:21.17]Thrown into the grave forever to sleep

[08:24.80]Funeral torches blazed away

[08:28.43]Through the towns and the villages all night and all day

[08:34.79]
