Bob Dylan
It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry (Live at RFK Stadium, Washington, DC, 6/10/73)
[Intro]
We're having a few minor technical difficulties, but everything is gonna be alright
[Verse 1]
I ride on a mail train, mama
Can't buy a thrill
I've been up all night, mama
Leanin' on the windowsill
If I die on top of the hill
If I don't make it, you know my baby will
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Don't the moon look good, mama
Shining through the trees?
Don't the brakeman look good, mama
Flaggin' down the "Double E?"
Don't the sun look fine
Settin' down over the sea?
Don't my gal look fine
When she's runnin' after me?
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Wintertime is coming
Windows are filled with frost
I tried to tell everybody
Could not get across
I wanna be your lovеr, baby
I don't wanna be your boss
Don't say I didn't warn you
When your train gets lost
[Outro]
Don't say I didn't warn you
Whеn your train gets lost
