tell me, momma

Singer: bob dylan

ol' black bascom

don't break no mirrors

cold black water dog

make no tears

you say you love me with what may be love

don't you remember makin' baby love?

got your steam drill built and you're lookin' for some kid

to get it to work for you like your nine-pound hammer did

but i know that you know that i know that you show

something is tearing up your mind

tell me

momma

tell me

momma

tell me

momma

what is it?

what's wrong with you this time?

hey

john

come and get me some candy goods

shucks

it sure feels like it's in the woods

spend some time on your january trips

you got tombstone moose up and your grave-yard whips

if you're anxious to find out when your friendship's gonna end

come on

baby

i'm your friend!

and i know that you know that i know that you show

something is tearing up your mind

tell me

momma

tell me

momma

tell me

momma

what is it?

what's wrong with you this time?

but his painted sled

instead it's a bed

i see you on your window ledge

but i can't tell just how far away you are from the edge

and

anyway

you're just gonna make people jump and roar

watcha wanna go and do that for?

for i know that you know that i know that you know

something is tearing up your mind

tell me

momma

what is it?

what's wrong with you this time?
