Bob Dylan
Tough Mama (Live at Keystone, Berkeley, CA, November 2, 1974)
[Verse 1]
Tough Mama
Meat shakin' on your bones
I'm gonna go down to the river and get you stoned
Sister's on the highway with that steel-drivin' crew
Papa's in the big house, his workin' days are through
Oh, Mama, can I blow a little smoke on you?

[Verse 2]
Dark Beauty
Why don't you move over and give me some room?
It's my duty to take you down to the field where the flowers bloom
Ashes in the furnace, dust on the rise
You can see it all the way, flyin' through the skies
Oh, Beauty, long night's journey in your eyes

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Sweet Goddess
Born of a blinding light and a changing wind
Now, don't be modest, know who you are and where you've been
Jack the Cowboy went up north, his betting years have past
Lone Wolf went out drinking but that was over fast
Dark Beauty, perfect stranger's comin' on in at last
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 4]
Silver Angel
Badge of the lonesome road on your sleeve
I'd be grateful if this golden ring you would receive
Today on the countryside it was hotter than a crotch
I stood alone upon a ridge and all I did was watch
Dark Beauty, it must be time to carve another notch

[Verse 5]
I've just fallen
World of illusion's at my door
I ain't haulin' any of my lambs to the marketplace anymore
Prison walls are crumblin', there is no end in sight
I've gained some recognition but I lost my appetite
Dark Beauty, meet me at the border late tonight
