Bob Dylan - Marchin' to the City Lyrics

Font:

Align:

Well I'm sitting in church

In an old wooden chair

I knew nobody

Would look for me there

Sorrow and pity

Rule the earth and the skies

Looking for nothing in

Anyone's eyes

Once I had pretty girls

Did me wrong

Now I'm marching to the city

And the road ain't long

Snowflakes are falling

Around my head

Lord have mercy

It feel heavy like lead

I been hit too hard

Seen too much

Nothing can heal me now

But your touch

Once I had a pretty girl

She done me wrong

Now I'm marching to the city

And the road ain't long

Loneliness

Got a mind of its own

The more people around

The more you feel alone

I'm chained to the earth

Like a silent slave

Trying to break free

Out of death's dark cave

Once I had a pretty girl

Done me wrong

Now I'm marching to the city

And the road ain't long

Boys in the street

Beginning to play

Girls like birds

Flying away

I'm carrying the roses

That were given to me

And I'm thinking about paradise

Wondering what it might be

Once I had a pretty girl

She done me wrong

Now I'm marching to the city

And the road ain't long

Go over to London

Maybe gay Paree

Follow the river

You get to the sea

I was hoping we could drink from

Life's clear streams

I was hoping we could dream

Life's pleasant dreams

Once I had a pretty girl

But she done me wrong

Now I'm marching to the city

And the road ain't long

Well the weak get weaker

And the strong stay strong

The train keeps rolling

All night long

She looked at me

With an irresistable glance

With a smile

That could make all the planets dance

Once I had a pretty girl

She did me wrong

Now I'm marching to the city

And the road ain't long

My house is on fire

Burning to the skies

I thought the rain clouds

But the clouds passed by

When I'm gone

You'll remember my name

I'm gonna win my way

To wealth and fame

Once I had a pretty girl

But she did me wrong

Now I'm marching to the city

And the road ain't long
