[00:05.07] Just like Tom Thumb's blues
[00:05.95]
[00:07.10] Bob Dylan
[00:08.59]
[00:09.65] When you're lost in the rain in Juarez
[00:13.31] And it's eastertime too
[00:18.73] And your gravity fails
[00:20.91] And negativity don't pull you through
[00:27.01] Don't put on any airs
[00:29.82] When you're down on rue Morgue Avenue
[00:37.25] They got some hungry women there
[00:39.19] And they really make a mess outa you
[00:45.30] Now if you see Saint Annie
[00:48.16] Please tell her thanks a lot
[00:52.26] I cannot move
[00:56.26] My fingers are all in a knot
[01:01.21] I don't have the strength
[01:05.38] To get up and take another shot
[01:10.94] And my best friend, my doctor
[01:14.34] Won't even say what it is i've got
[01:21.72] Sweet Melinda
[01:23.48] The peasants call her the goddess of gloom
[01:28.60] She speaks good English
[01:32.36] And she invites you up into her room
[01:38.08] But you get be cautious
[01:41.61] And careful not to go to her too soon
[01:47.54] 'cause she takes your voice
[01:50.30] And leaves you howling at the moon
[01:56.78] Up on housing project hill
[01:59.77] It's either fortune or fame
[02:02.88] You must pick up one or the other
[02:08.25] Though neither of them are to be what they claim
[02:14.94] If you're lookin' to get silly
[02:17.14] You better go back to from where you came
[02:23.79] Because the cops don't need you
[02:26.43] And man they expect the same
[02:33.06] Now all the authorities
[02:35.74] They just stand around and boast
[02:41.57] How they blackmailed the sergeant-at-arms
[02:45.90] Into leaving his post
[02:51.28] And picking up angel who
[02:54.06] Just arrived here from the coast
[02:59.71] Who looked so fine at first
[03:02.30] But left looking just like a ghost
[03:44.53] I started out on burgundy
[03:48.32] But soon hit the harder stuff
[03:52.49] Everybody said they'd stand behind me
[03:57.88] When the game got rough
[04:03.20] But the joke was on me
[04:05.33] There was nobody even there to call my bluff
[04:11.99] I'm going back to New York city
[04:14.95] I do believe i've had enough
