Bob Dylan - Sweetheart like you

Tekst :

Well, the pressure s down, the boss ain t here,
He gone North, he ain t around,
They say that vanity got the best of him
But he sure left here after sundown.
By the way, that s a cute hat,
And that smile s so hard to resist
But what s a sweetheart like you doin in a dump like this?

You know, I once knew a woman who looked like you,
She wanted a whole man, not just a half,
She used to call me sweet daddy when I was only a child,
You kind of remind me of her when you laugh.
In order to deal in this game, got to make the queen disappear,
It s done with a flick of the wrist.
What s a sweetheart like you doin in a dump like this?

You know, a woman like you should be at home,
That s where you belong,
Watching out for someone who loves you true
Who would never do you wrong.
Just how much abuse will you be able to take?
Well, there s no way to tell by that first kiss.
What s a sweetheart like you doin in a dump like this?

You know you can make a name for yourself,
You can hear them tires squeal,
You can be known as the most beautiful woman
Who ever crawled across cut glass to make a deal.

You know, news of you has come down the line
Even before ya came in the door.
They say in your father s house, there s many mansions
Each one of them got a fireproof floor.
Snap out of it, baby, people are jealous of you,
They smile to your face, but behind your back they hiss.
What s a sweetheart like you doin in a dump like this?

Got to be an important person to be in here, honey,
Got to have done some evil deed,
Got to have your own harem when you come in the door,
Got to play your harp until your lips bleed.

They say that patriotism is the last refuge
To which a scoundrel clings.
Steal a little and they throw you in jail,
Steal a lot and they make you king.
There s only one step down from here, baby,
It s called the land of permanent bliss.
What s a sweetheart like you doin in a dump like this?

    Shining star

    Waht if I just let it all out, what if I just put it all down.
    What if I twist and shout and can´t stand to see you around.
    As blind as I am, as cruel as you are.
    I always thought you´d be my shining star....

    Gypsy honeymoon

    Outta her head
    And outta her dreams
    There he was just the way she s seen him
    Lookin at her a thousand times before

    Said I can t believe
    It s been five long years
    Cause tonight they just seen to disappear
    You still look the same
    You haven t changed at all

    She said take me away...

    Licks and kicks

    I m sure it was the 24 (of september)
    That was a day the incident happen (I remember)
    My brethrens were all assembled in one ??? (ina the yard)
    Minding their own personality (of I-quality)
    Babylon then came along (???)
    With the forces of brutality

    Licks and kicks and ???
    Right to my brethrens ???

    Verse
    I m just loving you
    The perfume in a rose
    The symbol of my love for you
    love is on my side
    And always will be there
    Forever holding it for you

    Cruella de vil

    Cruella De Vil, Cruella De Vil
    If she doesn t scare you,
    no evil thing will
    To see her is to take a
    sudden chill
    Cruella, Cruella

    The curl in her lips
    The ice in her stare
    The inocent children better be ware
    She s like a spider waiting
    for the kill
    Look out for
    Cruella De Vil

    At first you think Cruellas
    is...
