Bob Dylan - Subterranean Homesick Blues Johnnys in the basement Mixing up the medicine Im on the pavement Thinking about the government The man in the trench coat Badge out, laid off Says hes got a bad cough Wants to get it paid off Look out kid Its somethin you did God knows when But youre doin it again You better duck down the alley way Lookin for a new friend The man in the coon-skip cap In the big pen Wants eleven dollar bills You only got ten. Maggie comes fleet foot Face full of black soot Talkin that the heat put Plants in the bed but The phones tapped anyway Maggie says that many say They must bust in early May Orders from the DA Look out kid Dont matter what you did Walk on your tip toes Dont try, No Doz Better stay away from those That carry around a fire hose Keep a clean nose Watch the plain clothes You dont need a weather man To know which way the wind blows. Get sick, get well Hang around an ink well Ring bell, hard to tell If anything is goin to sell Try hard, get barred Get back, write Braille Get jailed, jump bail Join the army, if you failed Look out kid Youre gonna get hit But losers, cheaters Six-time users Hang around the theaters Girl by the whirlpool Lookin for a new fool Dont follow leaders Watch the parkin meters. Ah get born, keep warm Short pants, romance, learn to dance Get dressed, get blessed Try to be a success Please her, please him, buy gifts Dont steal, dont lift Twenty years of schoolin And they put you on the day shift Look out kid They keep it all hid Better jump down a manhole Light yourself a candle Dont wear sandals Try to avoid the scandals Dont wanna be a bum You better chew gum The pump dont work Cause the vandals took the handles.
