[ti:A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall] [ar:Bob Dylan] [al:] [00:00.00]A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall [00:03.74]Bob Dylan [00:04.42]by: Shubin Wei [00:07.44]Oh, where have you been, my blue-eyed son? [00:13.71]Oh, where have you been, my darling young one? [00:20.15]I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains, [00:26.96]I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways, [00:33.63]I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests, [00:40.23]I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans, [00:46.78]I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard, [00:53.27]And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, and it's a hard, [01:01.11]And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall. [01:11.72]Oh, what did you see, my blue-eyed son? [01:18.32]Oh, what did you see, my darling young one? [01:24.80]I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it [01:31.56]I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it, [01:38.41]I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin', [01:44.93]I saw a room full of men with their hammers a-bleedin', [01:51.72]I saw a white ladder all covered with water, [01:58.28]I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken, [02:04.96]I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children, [02:09.96]And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, [02:15.77]And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall. [02:28.22]And what did you hear, my blue-eyed son? [02:35.13]And what did you hear, my darling young one? [02:41.42]I heard the sound of a thunder, it roared out a warnin', [02:48.37]Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world, [02:55.07]Heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a-blazin', [03:01.65]Heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin', [03:08.29]Heard one person starve, I heard many people laughin', [03:14.89]Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter, [03:21.68]Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley, [03:26.38]And it's a hard, and it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, [03:31.86]And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall. [03:44.63]Oh, who did you meet, my blue-eyed son? [03:49.88]Who did you meet, my darling young one? [03:57.12]I met a young child beside a dead pony, [04:03.80]I met a white man who walked a black dog, [04:10.84]I met a young woman whose body was burning, [04:17.30]I met a young girl, she gave me a rainbow, [04:24.26]I met one man who was wounded in love, [04:30.83]I met another man who was wounded with hatred, [04:35.60]And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, [04:43.49]It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall. [04:56.03]Oh, what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son? [05:02.72]Oh, what'll you do now, my darling young one? [05:09.70]I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin', [05:16.43]I'll walk to the depths of the deepest black forest, [05:23.29]Where the people are many and their hands are all empty, [05:29.83]Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters, [05:36.59]Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison, [05:43.02]Where the executioner's face is always well hidden, [05:50.11]Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten, [05:56.50]Where black is the color, where none is the number, [06:03.59]And I'll tell it and speak it and think it and breathe it, [06:09.49]And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it, [06:16.14]Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin', [06:23.05]But I'll know my song well before I start singin', [06:27.33]It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall.
