Lyrics

[ti:Dignity]
[ar:Bob Dylan]
[00:10] Fat man lookin’ in a blade of steel
[00:14] Thin man lookin’ at his last meal
[00:19] Hollow man lookin’ in a cottonfield
[00:22] For dignity
[00:27] Wise man lookin’ in a blade of grass
[00:31] Young man lookin’ in the shadows that pass
[00:35] Poor man lookin’ through painted glass
[00:39] For dignity
[00:44] Somebody got murdered on New Year’s Eve
[00:48] Somebody said dignity was the first to leave
[00:52] I went into the city, went into the town
[00:56] Went into the land of the midnight sun
[01:03] Searchin’ high, searchin’ low
[01:07] Searchin’ everywhere I know
[01:11] Askin’ the cops wherever I go
[01:15] Have you seen dignity?
[01:24] Blind man breakin’ out of a trance
[01:28] Puts both his hands in the pockets of chance
[01:32] Hopin’ to find one circumstance
[01:36] Of dignity
[01:40] I went to the wedding of Mary Lou
[01:44] She said, “I don’t want nobody see me talkin’ to you”
[01:48] Said she could get killed if she told me what she knew
[01:52] About dignity
[01:57] I went down where the vultures feed
[02:01] I would’ve gone deeper, but there wasn’t any need
[02:05] Heard the tongues of angels and the tongues of men
[02:09] Wasn’t any difference to me
[02:16] Chilly wind sharp as a razor blade
[02:20] House on fire, debts unpaid
[02:24] Gonna stand at the window, gonna ask the maid
[02:28] Have you seen dignity?
[02:41] Drinkin’ man listens to the voice he hears
[02:44] In a crowded room full of covered-up mirrors
[02:49] Lookin’ into the lost forgotten years
[02:52] For dignity
[02:57] Met Prince Phillip at the home of the blues
[03:01] Said he’d give me information if his name wasn’t used
[03:05] He wanted money up front, said he was abused
[03:09] By dignity
[03:13] Footprints runnin’ ’cross the silver sand
[03:17] Steps goin’ down into tattoo land
[03:21] I met the sons of darkness and the sons of light
[03:25] In the bordertowns of despair
[03:32] Got no place to fade, got no coat
[03:36] I’m on the rollin’ river in a jerkin’ boat
[03:40] Tryin’ to read a note somebody wrote
[03:44] About dignity
[04:05] Sick man lookin’ for the doctor’s cure
[04:09] Lookin’ at his hands for the lines that were
[04:13] And into every masterpiece of literature
[04:16] For dignity
[04:21] Englishman stranded in the blackheart wind
[04:25] Combin’ his hair back, his future looks thin
[04:29] Bites the bullet and he looks within
[04:33] For dignity
[04:37] Someone showed me a picture and I just laughed
[04:41] Dignity never been photographed
[04:45] I went into the red, went into the black
[04:50] Into the valley of dry bone dreams
[04:56] So many roads, so much at stake
[05:00] So many dead ends, I’m at the edge of the lake
[05:04] Sometimes I wonder what it’s gonna take
[05:08] To find dignity
