Subterranean Homesick Blues lyrics
Johnny's in the basement mixing up the medicine
I'm on the pavement thinking about the goverment The man in the trench coat, badge out, laid off, Says he's got a bad cough: wants to get it paid off. Pay him off God knows when but you're doin' it again! You better duck down the alleyway lookin' for a new friend The man in the coonskin cap in the big pen Wants eleven dollar bills: you only got ten So look out, kid Look out, kid, because it's something that you did, kid Look out, kid, because they keep all hid, lookout Maggie comes fleet foot, face full of black soot Talkin' at the heat put plants in the bed but The phone's tapped anyway, maggie says that many say They must bust in early May Orders from the D.A. The double D.A Walk on your tip toes, don't try "no doz" You better stay away from those that carry around a fire hose Keep a clean nose, and an eye on the plain clothes ‘Cause you don't need a weather man to know which way the wind blows Look out, kid Look out, kid, because it's something that you did, kid Look out, kid, because they keep all hid Looks to me like you did A little to much hittin' kid You should've took it to the bridge Before you started to skid Look out, kid The good god willin', we'll bebop to Bob Dylan Chillin'em, thrillin'em, and red hot killin'em Killin'em, I said killin' em Come on, come on Get sick, get well, hand around a ink well Ring bell, hard to tell if anything is goin' to sell Try hard, get barred, jump back, write braille Get jailed, jump bail, join the army, if you fail But users, cheaters, six time losers Hang around the theatres Girl by the whirlpool lookin' for a new fool Don't follow leaders, watch the parkin' meters Look out, kid Look out, kid, because it's something that you did, kid Look out, kid, because they keep all hid Look out, kid, because it’s something that you did, kid Look out, kid, because they keep it all hid, lookout
