Bob Dylan - Dignity текст песни

Fat man lookin in a blade of steel

Thin man lookin at his last meal

Hollow man lookin in a cottonfield

For dignity

Wise man lookin in a blade of grass

Young man lookin in the shadows that pass

Poor man lookin through painted glass

For dignity

Somebody got murdered on new years eve

Somebody said dignity was the first to leave

I went into the city, went into the town

Went into the land of the midnight sun

Searchin high, searchin low

Searchin everywhere I know

Askin the cops wherever I go

Have you seen dignity?

Blind man breakin out of a trance

Puts both his hands in the pockets of chance

Hopin to find one circumstance

Of dignity

I went to the wedding of mary-lou

She said i dont want nobody see me talkin to you? br> said she could get killed if she told me what she knew

About dignity

I went down where the vultures feed

I wouldve got deeper, but there wasnt any need

Heard the tongues of angels and the tongues of men

Wasnt any difference to me

Chilly wind sharp as a razor blade

House on fire, debts unpaid

Gonna stand at the window, gonna ask the maid

Have you seen dignity?

Drinkin man listens to the voice he hears

In a crowded room full of covered up mirrors

Lookin into the lost forgotten years

For dignity

Met prince phillip at the home of the blues

Said hed give me information if his name wasnt used

He wanted money up front, said he was abused

By dignity

Footprints runnin cross the sliver sand

Steps goin down into tattoo land

I met the sons of darkness and the sons of light

In the bordertowns of despair

Got no place to fade, got no coat

Im on the rollin river in a jerkin boat

Tryin to read a note somebody wrote

About dignity

Sick man lookin for the doctors cure

Lookin at his hands for the lines that were

And into every masterpiece of literature

For dignity

Englishman stranded in the blackheart wind

Combin his hair back, his future looks thin

Bites the bullet and he looks within

For dignity

Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed

Dignity never been photographed

I went into the red, went into the black

Into the valley of dry bone dreams

So many roads, so much at stake

So many dead ends, Im at the edge of the lake

Sometimes I wonder what its gonna take

To find dignity
