yonder comes sin
Singer:bob dylan
you got many things to say. you want the spirit to be speaking through
but your lust for comfort get in the way. i can read it in your eyes
what your heart will not reveal. and that old evil burden has been draggin' you down
bound to grind you 'neath the wheel
yonder comes sin. yonder comes sin. look at your feet
see where they've been to. look at your hands
see what they been into. can't you take it on the chin?
yonder comes sin. you see this woman standin' next to me. she's foreign to your sight. well
her eyes may be a different colour than mine
but her blood is red and her bones are white. you've been seeking them eternal
but your fifty-dollar smile confirms
you're still tryin' to buy your way into the dreams of them
whose bodies will be food for worms. yonder comes sin. yonder comes sin. look at your feet
see where they've been to. look at your hands
see what they've been into. can't you take it on the chin?
yonder comes sin. i say: see them six wild horses
honey. you say: i don't even see one. you say: point them out to me
love. i say: honey i got to run. my brother's blood is crying from the grave
but you can't hear the voice. i stand in jeopardy every hour
wonderin' what reason you have to rejoice. yonder comes sin. yonder comes sin. look at your feet see where they've been to. look at your hands
see what they've been into. enough to put you to tail-spin. yonder comes sin. jeremiah preached repentance
to those that would turn from hell. but the critics all gave him such bad reviews. put him down at the bottom of a well. kept on talking anyway
as the people were put into chains. wasn't nobody there to say bon voyage"
