Thunder on the Mountain - Bob Dylan
Thunder on the mountain
And there's fires on the moon
A ruckus in the alley and the
Sun will be here soon
Today's the day where I'm
Gonna grab my trombone and blow
Well there's hot stuff here
And it's everywhere I go
I was thinking about Alicia Keys
Couldn't keep from crying
When she was born in Hell's Kitchen
I was living down the line
I'm wondering where in
The world Alicia Keys could be
I been looking for her even
Clear through Tennessee
Feel like my soul is beginning to expand
Look into my heart and you
Will sort of understand
You brought me here now you're
Trying to turn me away
The writing on the wall come read it
come see what it does say
Thunder on the mountain
Rolling like a drum
Going to sleep over there that's
Where the music is coming from
I don't need any guide
I already know the way
Remember this I'm your
Servant both night and day
The pistols are popping
And the power is down
I'd like to try something
But I'm so far from town
The sun keeps shining and the
North Wind keeps picking up speed
Gonna forget about myself for a while
Gonna go out and see what others need
I've been sitting down studying the art of love
I think it will fit me like a glove
I want some real good
Woman to do just what I say
Everybody got to wonder what's
The matter with this cruel world today
Thunder on the mountain rolling to the ground
Gonna get up in the morning
Walk the hard road down
Some sweet day I'll stand beside my King
I wouldn't betray your love or any other thing
Gonna raise me an army
Some tough sons of *****es
I'll recruit my army from the orphanages
I been to St Herman's church
Said my religious vows
As I've sucked the milk out of a thousand cows
I've got the pork chops she's got the pie
She ain't no angel and neither am I
Shame on your greed
Shame on your wicked schemes
I'll say this I don't give a damn about your dreams
Thunder on the mountain heavy as can be
Mean old twister bearing down on me
All the ladies in Washington
Scrambling to get out of town
Looks like something bad is
Going to happen better
Roll your airplane down
Everybody going and I want to go too
Don't wanna take a chance
With somebody new
I did all I could I did it right there and then
I've already confessed
No need to confess again
Gonna make a lot of money
Gonna go up North
I'll plant and I'll harvest
What the earth brings forth
The hammer's on the table
The pitchfork's on the shelf
For the love of God you
Ought to take pity on yourself
