BOB DYLAN - I Want You lyrics

rate me

The guilty undertaker sighs,<br>The lonesome organ grinder cries,<br>The silver saxophones say I should refuse you.<br>The cracked bells and washed-out horns<br>Blow into my face with scorn,<br>But it's not that way,<br>I wasn't born to lose you.<br>I want you, I want you,<br>I want you so bad,<br>Honey, I want you.<br><br>The drunken politician leaps<br>Upon the street where mothers weep<br>And the saviors who are fast asleep,<br>They wait for you.<br>And I wait for them to interrupt<br>Me drinkin' from my broken cup<br>And ask me to<br>Open up the gate for you.<br>I want you, I want you,<br>I want you so bad,<br>Honey, I want you.<br><br>Now all my fathers, they've gone down<br>True love they've been without it.<br>But all their daughters put me down<br>'cause I don't think about it.<br><br>Well, I return to the queen of spades<br>And talk with my chambermaid.<br>She knows that I'm not afraid<br>To look at her.<br>She is good to me<br>And there's nothing she doesn't see.<br>She knows where I'd like to be<br>But it doesn't matter.<br>I want you, I want you,<br>I want you so bad,<br>Honey, I want you.<br><br>Now your dancing child with his chinese suit,<br>He spoke to me, I took his flute.<br>No, I wasn't very cute to him,<br>Was i? <br>But I did it, though, because he lied<br>Because he took you for a ride<br>And because time was on his side<br>And because I . . .<br>I want you, I want you,<br>I want you so bad,<br>Honey, I want you.
