Song for Bob Dylan Lyrics - David Bowie

1 Oh, hear this, Robert Zimmerman

2 I wrote a song for you

3 About a strange young man called Dylan

4 With a voice like sand and glue

5 His words of truthful vengeance

6 They could pin us to the floor

7 Brought a few more people on

8 And put the fear in a whole lot more

9 Ah, here she comes

10 Here she comes

11 Here she comes again

12 The same old painted lady

13 From the brow of a superbrain

14 She'll scratch this world to pieces

15 As she comes on like a friend

16 But a couple of songs

17 From your old scrapbook

18 Could send her home again

19 You gave your heart to every bedsit room

20 At least a picture on the wall

21 And you sat behind a million pair of eyes

22 And told them how they saw

23 Then we lost your train of thought

24 The paintings are all your own

25 While troubles are rising

26 We'd rather be scared

27 Together than alone

28 Ah, here she comes

29 Here she comes

30 Here she comes again

31 The same old painted lady

32 From the brow of a superbrain

33 She'll scratch this world to pieces

34 As she comes on like a friend

35 But a couple of songs

36 From your old scrapbook

37 Could send her home again

38 Now hear this, Robert Zimmerman

39 Though I don't suppose we'll meet

40 Ask your good friend Dylan

41 If he'd gaze a while down the old street

42 Tell him we've lost his poems

43 So we're writing on the walls

44 Give us back our unity

45 Give us back our family

46 You're every nation's refugee

47 Don't leave us with their sanity

48 Ah, here she comes

49 Here she comes

50 Here she comes again

51 The same old painted lady

52 From the brow of a superbrain

53 She'll scratch this world to pieces

54 As she comes on like a friend

55 But a couple of songs

56 From your old scrapbook

57 Could send her home again

58 Ah, a couple of songs

59 From your old scrapbook

60 Could send her home again

61 Oh, here she comes

62 Here she comes

63 Here she comes
