[00:01.36] Pay In Blood
[00:02.41] Bob Dylan
[00:03.73]
[00:09.12] Well I'm grinding my life out, steady and sure
[00:14.42] Nothing more wretched than what I must endure
[00:18.74] I'm drenched in the light that shines from the sun
[00:23.07] I could stone you to death for the wrongs that you done
[00:28.09] Sooner or later you make a mistake,
[00:32.60] I'll put you in a chain that you never will break
[00:37.28] Legs and arms and body and bone
[00:41.80] I pay in blood, but not my own.
[00:45.82]
[00:55.94] Night after night, Day after day
[01:00.59] They strip your useless hopes away
[01:04.94] The more I take the more I give
[01:09.57] The more I die the more I live
[01:13.67] I got something in my pocket make your eyeballs swim
[01:18.55] I got dogs could tear you limb from limb
[01:23.38] I'm circlin' around the Southern Zone
[01:27.99] I pay in blood, but not my own.
[01:31.92]
[01:41.92] Low cards are what I've got
[01:46.45] But I'll play this hand whether I like it or not
[01:50.79] I'm sworn to uphold the laws of God
[01:55.55] You could put me out in front of a firing squad
[02:00.20] I've been out and around with the rising men
[02:04.64] Just like you my handsome friend
[02:09.00] My head's so hard, must be made of stone
[02:13.93] I pay in blood, but not my own.
[02:17.69]
[02:27.54] Another politician pumping out the piss
[02:32.10] Another angry beggar blowing you a kiss
[02:36.71] You got the same eyes that your mother does
[02:41.43] If only you could prove who your father was
[02:46.03] Someone must to slipped a drug in your wine
[02:50.55] You gulped it down and you cross the line
[02:55.36] Man can't live by bread alone
[02:59.98] I pay in blood, but not my own.
[03:03.82]
[03:13.39] How I made it back home, nobody knows
[03:18.17] Or how I survived so many blows
[03:22.80] I've been thru Hell, What good did it do?
[03:27.46] You bastard! I'm supposed to respect you!
[03:32.38] I'll give you justice, I'll fatten your purse
[03:36.85] Show me your moral virtue first
[03:41.28] Hear me holler and hear me moan
[03:46.17] I pay in blood but not my own.
[03:49.94]
[04:00.03] You get your lover in the bed
[04:04.61] Come here I'll break your lousy head
[04:09.21] Our nation must be saved and freed
[04:13.37] You've been accused of murder, how do you plead?
[04:18.53] This is how I spend my days
[04:23.10] I came to bury, not to praise
[04:27.39] I'll drink my fill and sleep alone
[04:32.28] I play in blood, but not my own.
[04:36.31]
