Absolutely Sweet Marie Lyrics - Blonde On Blonde - Bob Dylan

Well, your railroad gate, you know I just can't jump it 

Sometimes it gets so hard, you see 

I'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 a-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 finally 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 don't know how it happened 

But the river-boat captain, he knows my fate 

But everybody else, even yourself 

They'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 can't unlock it 

You see, you forgot to leave me with the key 

Ah, where are you tonight, Sweet Marie? 

Photos 

Well, I been in jail where all the mail showed 

That a man can't give his address out to bad company 

And now I stand here lookin' at your yellow railroad 

In the ruins of your balcony 

Wondering where you are tonight, Sweet Marie
