Highway 61 Revisited - Bob Dylan

Highway 61 Revisited

Bob Dylan



Lyrics:
Oh God said to Abraham, kill me a son
Abe said man you must be puttin me on
God said no, Abe said what
God said you can do what you want Abe but
Next time you see me coming you better run
Well, Abe said where you want this killin done
God said out on highway 61

Well, Georgia Sam, he had a bloody nose,
they wouldnt give him no clothes
He asked poor Howard, where can I go
Howard said theres only one place i know
Sam said tell me quick man I got to run
Oh Howard just pointed with his gun
And said that way down highway 61

Well, Mack the finger said to Louis the king
I got fourty red, white and blue shoestrings
And a thousand telephones that dont ring
Do you know where I can get rid of these things
And Louis the king said let me think for a minute son
And he said yes, I think it can be easily done
Just take everything down to highway 61

Now, the fifth daughter on the twelfth night
Told the first father that things were'nt right
My complexion she says is much too white
He said come here and step into the light
He said h'mm you're right,
Let me tell the second mother this has been done
But the second mother was with her seventh son
And they were both out on highway 61

Now the roving gambler, he was very bored
Trying to create our next world war
He found a promoter who nearly fell on the floor
He said I've never engaged in this kind of thing before
But yes I think it can be very easily done
We'll just put some bleachers out in the sun
And head out on highway 61

Letra:
Dios dijo a Abrahám, “Mátame un hijo.”
Abe dijo, “Tío, debes estar de broma.”
Dios dijo, “No.” Abe dice, “¿Qué?”
Dios dijo, “haz lo que quieras Abe,
pero sino la próxima vez que me veas
más te vale que salgas corriendo”
Abe dijo, “¿Donde quieres
que sea esa muerte?”
Dios dijo, “Fuera, en la Autopista 61”

A Georgia Sam, le sangraba la nariz,
ellos no le querían dar ropas.
Le preguntó al pobre Howard, “¿Dónde puedo ir?”
Howard le dijo, “Que yo sepa sólo hay un lugar”,
Sam dijo, “Tío, dímelo rápido, tengo que escapar.”
El viejo Howard tan sólo señaló con su pistola,
y dijo, “Aquel camino baja a la Autopista 61.”

Mack el chivato dijo al rey Louie,
“Tengo cuarenta cordones de zapatos rojos,
blancos y azules
y mil teléfonos que no suenan.
¿Sabes dónde puedo deshacerme
de todas estas cosas?”
Y Louie el Rey dijo,
“Déjame pensar un minuto, hijo”,
y dijo, “sí, pienso que se puede hacer,
sólo llévalo todo abajo, a la Autopista 61”

La quinta hija en la duodécima noche
le dijo al primer padre que las cosas no iban bien,
“El color de mi cara -le dijo- es demasiado blanca.”
Él dijo, “Ven aquí para que te vea a la luz.”
Dice, “Hmm, estás bien,
déjame que le cuente a la segunda madre
lo que ha ocurrido.”
Pero la segunda madre estaba
con el séptimo hijo,
y ambos estaban fuera, en la Autopista 61.

El vagabundo errante estaba muy aburrido,
estaba intentando organizar
la próxima guerra mundial,
encontró un promotor que casi levitó del suelo,
y que dijo, “Nunca antes se me contrató
en algo parecido,
pero sí, pienso que puede hacerse fácilmente,
sólo pondremos afuera algunas gradas al sol,
y la armaremos en la Autopista 61

Lazy Sod - Deep Purple

 Lazy Sod Deep Purple Lyrics: The world’s on fire And I can’t get my arse out of bed The world is on fire There’s smoke all around my head   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night……   The oceans are rising And I can’t do a thing about that So it’s hardly surprising I built an ark for me and my sleek black cat   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night…… Oh yes, turn off the gas and don’t forget to switch off the light   But that’s all right coz I’m a lazy sod and I’m hot Don’t mind me coz I’m a lazy sod, you can like it or not I’m guessing not   What was I thinking about when I crashed last night…… Oh yes, turn off the gas and don’t forget to switch off the light   That’s all right coz I’m a lazy sod and I’m hot, so hot Don’t mind me coz I’m a lazy sod, Whether you like it, like it or not And I’m guessing not Soooo what  ------------------------------------------...

Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship - Alestorm

Zombies Ate My Pirate Ship Alestorm Lyrics: In the dead of night We hear the sound of thunder Undead fiends arise To terrorize and plunder Crawling through the sea A dendrophagic horde Our ship's no longer safe The zombies have just climbed aboard! Bloodlust in their eyes Our boat is their prize A feast for the dead Devouring the ship and inside of our heads Far across the sea Zombies wait for me Craving brains and treasure It's their destiny Til my dying day Hear these words I say Zombies ate my pirate ship I will make them pay Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (Those Zombies ate my pirate ship) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (They are a bunch of undead pricks) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (I'll smash their face in with a brick) Yo ho yo ho yo ho yo ho (Those Zombies ate my pirate ship) Centuries ago The prophecy was written So the story goes The grimmest and the true frostbitten Druids made a pact That zombie ...

Portable Door - Deep Purple

 Portable Door Deep Purple Lyrics: When it came to me one day in Jerksville Man, I was right on the edge That jacket's too small for a man of your size And those socks are too big for your head   My eyes glaze at whatever you say But I'm listening, do tell me more It goes under the bridge, right over my head And out through my portable door   I was trapped in a dire situation Between reason and someone-in-law The winner takes all and runs off with the ball Nothing could pleasure me more   Times were, I'd have spoken my piece For a minute or two held the floor But I can't get a word in so here I am hurtling Right out through my portable door   The jabbering's hurting my brain cell so bad For once in my life I am bored The public house beckons, I follow the call And slip in through my portable door   The unlikely event came upon me I wasn't prepared for the shock Once round my neck and twice round ...
