Absolutely Sweet Marie
Bob Dylan
Letra

Álbum: Blonde on Blonde ( 1966)

Well, your railroad gate

You know I just canÂ¿t jump it

Sometimes it gets so hard, you see

IÂ¿m just sitting here beating on my trumpet

With all these promises you left for me

But where are you tonight, sweet Marie?

Well, I waited for you when I was half sick

Yes, I waited for you when you hated me

Well, I waited for you inside of the frozen traffic

When you knew I had some other place to be

Now, where are you tonight, sweet Marie?

Well, anybody can be just like me, obviously

But then, now again, not too many can be like you, fortunately

Well, six white horses that you did promise

Were finÂ¿lly delivered down to the penitentiary

But to live outside the law, you must be honest

I know you always say that you agree

Alright so where are you tonight, sweet Marie?

Well, I donÂ¿t know how it happened, but the

Riverboat captain, he knows my fate

But evÂ¿rybody else, even yourself

TheyÂ¿re just gonna have to wait

Well, I got the fever down in my pockets

The Persian drunkard, he follows me

Yes, I can take him to your house but I canÂ¿t unlock it

You see, you forgot to leave me with the key

Oh, where are you tonight, sweet Marie?

Well now, I been in jail when all my mail showed

That a man canÂ¿t give his address out to bad company

And now I stand here lookinÂ¿ at your yellow railroad

In the ruins of your balcony

WondÂ¿ring where you are tonight, sweet Marie
