Honest With Me — текст песни (Bob Dylan)

Words and music by bob dylan



Well, Im stranded in the city that never sleeps

Some of these women they just give me the creeps

Im avoidin the south side the best I can

These memories I got they can strangle a man

Well, I came ashore in the dead of the night

Lot of things can get in the way when youre tryin to do whats right



You dont understand it, my feelin for you

Youd be honest with me if you only knew



Im not sorry for nothing Ive done

Im glad I fought, I only wish wed won

The siamese twins are comin to town

People cant wait, theyve gathered around

When I left my home the sky split open wide

I never wanted to go back there, Id rather have died



You dont understand it, my feelin for you

Youd be honest with me if only you knew



My woman got a face like a teddy bear

Shes tossin a baseball bat in the air

The meat is so tough you cant cut it with a sword

Im crashin my car trunk first into the board

They say that my eyes are pretty and my smile is nice

Well, Id sell it to ya at a reduced price



You dont understand it, my feeling for you

Youd be honest with me if only you knew



Some things are too terrible to be true,

I wont come here no more if its botherin you

Theres a southern pacific leaving at 9:45

Im havin a hard time, believin some people would ever arrive

Im stark naked but I dont care

Im goin off into the woods Im huntn bare

You dont understand it, my feeling for you

Well, youd be honest with me if only you knew



Im here to create the new imperial empire

Im gonna do whatever circumstances require

I care so much for you, didnt think I could

I cant tell my heart that youre no good

Well, my parents, they warned me not to risk my years

And I still got their advice oozing out of my ears



You dont understand it, my feeling for you

Well, youd be honest with me if only you knew
