Bob Dylan - Summer Days текст песни

Words and music by bob dylan

Summer days, summer nights are gone

Summer days and summer nights are gone

I know a place where theres still somethin going on

Ive got a house on the hill, I got hogs out in the mud

Ive got a house on the hill, I got hogs all out in the mud

Ive got a long haired woman, she got royal indian blood

Everybody get ready, lift up your glasses and sing

Everybody get ready, lift up your glasses and sing

Well Im standin on the table, Im proposin a toast to the king

Im driving in the flats in a cadillac car

The girls all say "youre a worn out star"

My pockets are loaded, and Im spending every dime

How can you say you love someone else, you know its me all the time

Well the fogs so thick you cant spy the land

Well the fogs so thick that you cant even spy the land

What good are you anyway if you cant stand up to some old businessman?

Weddin bells are ringin and the choir is beginning to sing

Yes, the weddin bells are ringin and the choirs beginning to sing

What looks good in the day, at night is another thing

Shes looking in to my eyes, and shes a-holding my hand

She looks in to my eyes, shes holding my hand

She say, "you cant repeat the past,"

I say "you cant? what do you mean you cant? of course you can."

Where do you come from, where do you go?

Sorry, that is nothing you would need to know

Well, my backs been to the wall so long it seems like its stuck

Why dont you break my heart one more time, just for good luck

I got eight carburators and boys Im usin em all

Well, I got eight carburators and boys Im usin em all

Im short on gas, my motors startin to stall

My dogs are barking, there must be someone around

My dogs are barking, there must be someone around

I got my hammer ringin pretty baby, but the nails aint goin down

If you got something to say, speak or hold your peace

Well, if you got something to say, speak now or hold your peace

If its information you want, you can get it from the police

Politicians got on his joggin shoes

He must be runnin for office, got no time to lose

Suckin the blood out of the genius of generosity

You been rollin your eyes, you been teasin me

Standin by gods river my souls beginning to shake

Standin by gods river my souls beginning to shake

Im countin on you, love, to gimme a break

Well, Im leaving in the morning, as soon as the dark clouds lift

Yes, Im leaving in the morning, just as soon as the dark clouds lift

Im breakin the roof, set fire to the place as a partin gift

Summer days, summer nights are gone

Summer days, summer nights are gone

I know a place where theres still something goin on
