High Water (For Charley Patton)(Live, 2003) - Bob Dylan
High water risin' . risin' night and day,

All the gold and silver are being stolen away,

Big Joe Turner lookin' East and West,

From the dark room of his mind,

He made it to Kansas City,
Twelfth Street and Vine,

Nothing standing there,

High water everywhere,,

High water risin', the shacks are slidin' down,

Folks lose their possessions - folks are leaving town,

Bertha Mason shook it - broke it,
Then she hung it on a wall,

Says, "You're dancin' with whom they tell you to,
Or you don't dance at all.",
It's tough out there,

High water everywhere,,

I got a cravin' love for blazing speed,
Got a hopped up Mustang Ford,

Jump into the wagon, love, throw your panties overboard,

I can write you poems, make a strong man lose his mind,

I'm no pig without a wig,

I hope you treat me kind,

Things are breakin' up out there,

High water everywhere,,

High water risin', six inches 'bove my head,

Coffins droppin' in the street,
Like balloons made out of lead,

Water pourin' into Vicksburg, don't know what I'm going to do,

"Don't reach out for me," she said,
"Can't you see I'm drownin' too?",

It's rough out there,

High water everywhere,,

Well, George Lewis told the Englishman, the Italian and the Jew,

"You can't open your mind, boys,

To every conceivable point of view.",

They got Charles Darwin trapped out there on Highway Five,

Judge says to the High Sheriff,,

"I want him dead or alive,

Either one, I don't care.",

High Water everywhere,,

The Cuckoo is a pretty bird, she warbles as she flies,

I'm preachin' the Word of God,

I'm puttin' out your eyes,

I asked Fat Nancy for something to eat, she said, "Take it off the shelf -,

As great as you are a man,,
You'll never be greater than yourself.",

I told her I didn't really care,

High water everywhere,,

I'm getting' up in the morning I believe I'll dust my broom,

Keeping away from the women,

I'm givin' 'em lots of room,

Thunder rolling over Clarksdale, everything is looking blue,

I just can't be happy, love,

Unless you're happy too,

It's bad out there,

High water everywhere
