The flowered bones and hidden thoughts can no longer remain still

Señor, señor, do you know where we’re headin’?

Lenny Bruce is dead but his ghost lives on and on

Freedom just around the corner for you, but with truth so far off, what good will it do?

I and I, in creation where one’s nature neither honors nor forgives

What’s a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?

All around, my revolution has been sung, all around, my story’s been told

Nobody can sing the blues like Blind Willie McTell

Power and greed and corruptible seed seem to be all that there is

When the night comes falling from the sky, I hope that you’re ready to go

Oh, the gentlemen are talking and the midnight moon is on the riverside

Come baby, find me, come baby, remind me of where I once begun

A million faces at my window, but I still can see no one

You always said, “When I go, I’ll go just like I came”

I’ll remember you, when I’ve forgotten all the rest
