Lyrics It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry - Alternate Take - Bob Dylan
I ride on the mail train, mom
Can′t buy no thrill
I've been up all night baby
Leanin′ on the windowsill
But if I die on top of the hill
And if I don't make it
You know my baby will
Ah, don't the sun look good babe?
Comin′ down through the trees
Don′t the ghost town look good, mama?
Sitting on this meme's knee
Don′t the moon look good?
Goin' down over the sea
But don′t my gal look fine when she's
Runnin′ after me?
Alright!
Why?
Well, I just been to the baggage room
Where the engineer, he's been tough
Oh, I step up for the compasses
God knows what a day costs
Well, I wanna be your lover, baby
I don't wanna be your boss
And I can′t help it
If the string gets lost
Alright
