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

Invaders - Iron Maiden

Invaders Iron Maiden Lyrics: Longboats have been sighted the evidence of war has begun Many Nordic fighting men their swords and shields all gleam in the sun Call to arms defend yourselves get ready to stand and fight for your lives Judgement day has come around so be prepared don't run stand your ground They're coming in from the sea they've come the enemy beneath the blazing sun the battle has to be won Invaders ... Pillaging Invaders ... Looting Set ablaze the campfires alert the other men from inland Warning must be given there's not enough men here for a stand The Vikings are too many too powerful to take on our own We must have reinforcements we cannot fight this battle alone They're coming over the hill they've come to attack they're coming in for the kill there's no turning back Invaders ... Fighting Invaders ... Marauding Axes grind and maces clash as wounded fighters fall to the ground Severed li...

Still of The Night - Whitesnake

Still Of The Night Whitesnake Lyrics: In the still of the night I hear the wolf howl, honey Sniffing around your door In the still of the night I feel my heart beating heavy Telling me I gotta have more In the shadow of night I see the full moon rise Telling me what's in store My heart start aching My body start a shaking And I can't take no more Now I just wanna get close to you An' taste your love so sweet And I just wanna make love to you Feel your body heat In the still of the night In the still of the night Over here baby In the heat of the day , I hang my head down low And hide my face from the sun Through the light of the day Until the evening time I'm waiting for the night to come In the still of the night In the cool moonlight I feel heart is aching In the still of the night Tell me here baby! In the still of the night I hear the wolf howl, honey Sniffing around your door ...

Since You've Been Gone - Rainbow

Since You've Been Gone Rainbow Lyrics:   I get the same old dreams same time everynight Fall to the ground and I wake up So I get out of bed, put on my shoes and in my head Thoughts fly back to the breakup These four wall are closing in Look at the fix you put me in Since you been gone Since you been gone I'm out of my head can't take it Could I be wrong But since you been gone You cast your spell so break it Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Since you been gone So in the night I stand beneath the backstreet light I read the words that you sent to me I can take the afternoon, the night time comes around too soon You can't know what you mean to me Your poison letter, your telegram Just goes to show you don't give a damn Since you been gone Since you been gone I'm out of my head can't take it Could I be wrong But since you been gone You cast your spell so break it Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Since you been gone If you will come back ...
