Lyrics Tough Mama - Bob Dylan
Tough
Mama
Meat
shakin'
on
your
bones
I'm
gonna
go
down
to
the
river
and
get
some
stones
Sister's
on
the
highway
with
that
steel-drivin'
crew
Papa's
in
the
big
house,
his
workin'
days
are
through
Tough
Mama
Can
I
blow
a
little
smoke
on
you?
Dark
Beauty
Won't
you
move
it
on
over
and
make
some
room?
It's
my
duty
to
bring
you
down
to
the
field
where
the
flowers
bloom
Ashes
in
the
furnace,
dust
on
the
rise
You
came
through
it
all
the
way,
flyin'
through
the
skies
Dark
Beauty
With
that
long
night's
journey
in
your
eyes
Sweet
Goddess
Born
of
a
blinding
light
and
a
changing
wind
Now,
don't
be
modest,
you
know
who
you
are
and
where
you've
been
Jack
the
Cowboy
went
up
north
He's
buried
in
your
past
The
Lone
Wolf
went
out
drinking
That
was
over
pretty
fast
Sweet
Goddess
Your
perfect
stranger's
comin'
in
at
last
Silver
Angel
With
the
badge
of
the
lonesome
road
sewed
in
your
sleeve
I'd
be
grateful
if
this
golden
ring
you
would
receive
Today
on
the
countryside
it
was
a-hotter
than
a
crotch
I
stood
alone
upon
the
ridge
and
all
I
did
was
watch
Sweet
Goddess
It
must
be
time
to
carve
another
notch
I'm
crestfallen
The
world
of
illusion
is
at
my
door
I
ain't
a-haulin'
any
of
my
lambs
to
the
marketplace
anymore
The
prison
walls
are
crumblin',
there
is
no
end
in
sight
I've
gained
some
recognition
but
I
lost
my
appetite
Dark
Beauty
Meet
me
at
the
border
late
tonight
