Old bob Well, it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe It don't mattered anyhow And it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe It don't matter anyhow When your rooster crows at the break of dawn Look out your window and I'll be gone You're the reason I'm travelin' on But don't think twice, it's alright Well, it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe That light I never knowed And it ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe I'm on the dark side of the road Still I wish there was somethin' you would do or say To try and make me change my mind and stay But we never did too much talkin' anyway So don't think twice, it's alright And it ain't no use in callin' out my name, babe Like you never done before And it ain't no use in callin' out my name, babe I can't hear you anymore I'm thinkin' and wonderin', walkin' all the way down the road I once loved a woman, a I'm told I give her my heart but she wanted my soul But don't think twice, it's alright So I'm walkin' down that long, lonesome road, babe Where I'm bound, I can't tell But goodbye's too good a word, babe So I'll just say fare thee well I ain't sayin' you treated me unkind You could've done better but I don't mind You just kinda wasted my precious time But don't think twice, it's alright ~●Dylan. Aka Robert Zimmerman.  |

He came up with words... "Johnny's in the basement, mixing up the medicine I'm on the pavement, thinking about the government The man in the trench coat, badge out, laid off Says "He's got a bad cough, wants to get it paid off" Look out kid, it's somethin' you did God knows when but you're doin' it again You better duck down the alley way, lookin' for a new friend The man in the coon-skin cap, in the big pen Wants eleven dollar bills, you only got ten Maggie comes fleet foot face full of black soot Talkin' that the heat put, plants in the bed but The phone's tapped anyway, Maggie says that many say "They must bust in early May, orders from the D.A" Look out kid, don't matter what you did But walk on your tip toes don't tie no bows Better stay away from those that carry around a fire hose Keep a clean nose, watch the plain clothes You don't need a weather man to know which way the wind blows Oh get sick, get well, hang around a ink well Ring bell, hard to tell, if anything is goin' to sell Try hard, get barred, get back, write Braille Get jailed, jump bail, join the army if you fail Look out kid, you're gonna get hit But losers, cheaters, six-time users Hangin' around the theaters Girl by the whirlpool, lookin' for a new fool Don't follow leaders, watch your parkin' meters Oh get born, keep warm, short pants, romance Learn to dance, get dressed, get blessed, try to be a success Please her, please him, buy gifts, don't steal, don't lift Twenty years of schoolin' and they put you on the day shift Look out kid, they keep it all hid Better jump down a manhole, light yourself a candle Don't wear sandals, try to avoid the scandals Don't wanna be a bum you better chew gum The pump don't work, 'cause the vandals took the handles..."

Such a poet. I am so glad I finally got to see him a couple of years ago.

Bob Dylan is one of the best!

like He was a wonderful lyricist! A life spent making mistakes is not only more honorable, but more useful than a life spent doing nothing. George Bernard Shaw Jenny
