Hollies Sing Dylan

(dylan)
Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as i stand here in the rain
Everybody knows that baby's got new clothes
But lately i see her ribbons and her bows
Have fallen from her curls

Oh, she takes just like a woman
Yes she does
And she makes love just like a woman
Yes she does
And she aches just like a woman
Yeah, but she breaks just like a little girl

Mary, she's my friend
Yes, i believe i'll go see her again
Nobody has to guess
That baby can't be blessed
'til she finally sees that she's like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamines and her pearls

Chorus

It was rainin from the first
I was dyin of thirst
So i came in here
And your longtime curse
Hurts but what's worse
Is this pain in here
I can't stay in here
Ain't it clear
I just can't fit

Yes, i believe it's time for us to quit
When we meet again, introduced as friends
Please don't let on that you knew me when
I was hungry and it was your world

Chorus

(dylan)
The guilty undertaker sighs
The lonely organ grinder cries
The silver saxophones say i should refuse you
The cracked bells and washed-out horns
Blow into my face with scorn
But it's not that way
I wasn't born to lose you
I want you, i want you
Oh so bad
Baby, i want you

Once a politician leaves
Upon the street where mothers weep
The saviours who are fast asleep
They wait for you
And i wait for them to interrupt
Me drinkin from my broken cup
And askin me to open up the gate for you

Woh baby i want you
I want you
I want you
Oh, so bad
Baby i want you

Now all my fathers, they've gone down
True love they've been without it
But all their daughters put me down
'cause i don't think about it

Baby i want you
Now your dancing child with his chinese suit
He spoke to me, i took his flute
No, i wasn't very cute to him now was i

I did it because he lied
Because he took you for a ride
And because time was on his side
And because i want you, baby i want you

I want you

(dylan)
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty quinn
Come all without, come all within
You'll not see nothing like the mighty quinn

Everybody's building ships and boats
Some are building monuments, others jotting down notes
Everybody's in despair, every girl and boy
But when quinn the eskimo gets here
Everybody's gonna jump for joy

Chorus

I like to go just like the rest, i like my sugar sweet
But jumping queues and making haste
Just ain't my cup of meat
Everyone's beneath the trees feeding pigeons on a limb
But when quinn the eskimo gets here
All the pigeons gonna run to him

Chorus

Let me do what i want to do, i can't decide 'em all
Just tell me where to put 'em, and i'll tell you who call
Nobody can get no sleep, there's someone on everyone's toes
But when quinn the eskimo gets here
Everybody's gonna want to doze

Chorus

(dylan)
Close your eyes, close the door
You don't have to worry anymore
I'll be your little baby tonight

Shut the light, shut the shade
You don't have to be afraid
I'll be your baby tonight

Well the mockingbird's gonna sail away
You won't regret it
The big fine moons gonna shine like a spoon
You won't regret, you won't forget
To get your shoes off
Do not fear
Bring that bottle over here
I'll be your baby tonight

Verse 3

I'll be your baby tonight

(dylan)
Come gather round people wherever you may roam
Admit that the waters around you have grown
Admit that soon you'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you is a savin
Well you better start swimmin or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a changing

Come writers and critics who prophesy with your pen
Keep your eyes wide the chance won't come again
Don't speak too soon for the wheels still in spin
And there's no tellin who that it's namin
For the loser now will be later to win
For the times, they are a changing

Come sailors and congressman please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway, don't blacken the hall
For he who has lost is he who has all
There's a storm outside and it's ragin'
It'll soon shake your windows, it'll rattle your walls
For the times, they are a changing

It'll soon shake your windows and it'll rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'

Come mothers and fathers throughout the land
Don't criticise what you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters are beyond your command
And your old road is rapidly agin'
So get outta here or if you can lend a hand

For the times they are a-changin'

Verse 1

For the times they are a-changin'...

(dylan)
Oh the time will come up
When the winds will stop
And the breeze will cease to be a breezin
Like the stillness in the wind
For the hurricane begins
The hour when the ship comes in

Oh the seas will split
And the ship will hit
And the shoreline sands will be shaken
Then the tide will sound and the wind will pound
And the morning will be breakin

Oh the fishes will laugh
As they swim out of the path
And the seagulls they'll be smilin
And the rocks on the sand
Will proudly stand
The hour that the ship comes in

And the words they use
For to get the ship confused
Will not be understood as they are spoken
For the chains of the sea
Will have busted in the night
And be buried at the bottom of the ocean

Verse 2

A song will lift as the main sail shifts
And the boat drifts onto the shoreline
And the sun will respect every face on the deck
The hour when the ship comes in
Then the sands will roll out a carpet of gold
For your weary toes to be a touchin
And the ships wise men will remind you once again
That the whole wide world is watchin
