Johnny Bye-Bye

Well she drew out all her money from the southern trust And put her little boy on the greyhound bus Leaving memphis with a guitar in his hand With a one way ticket to the promised land Hey little girl with the red dress on There's party tonight down in memphis down I'll be going down there if you need a ride The man on the radio says elvis presley's died We drove to memphis the sky was hard and black Up over the ridge came a white cadillac They drawed out all his money and they laid him in the back A woman cried from the roadside "oh he's gone, he's gone" They found him slumped up against the drain With a whole lotta trouble running through his veins Bye bye johnny Johnny bye bye You didn't have to die You didn't have to die (all aboard! Train I ride... Sixteen coaches long) Just like a woman (bob dylan/bob dylan) Nobody feels any pain Tonight as I stand inside the rain Everybody knows That baby has got me closed But lately I see her ribbons and her bows Have fallen from her curls She takes just like a woman, yes she does She makes love just like a woman, yes she does And she aches just like a woman But she breaks just like a little girl Queen mary she's my friend Yes I believe I'll go see her again Nobody has to guess That baby can't be blessed 'till she finally sees That she's like all the rest With her fog her amphetamine and her pearls It was raining from the first And I was dying there of thirst So I came in here And your long time curse hurts But what's worse Is this pain in here I can't stay in here Ain't it clear that I just can't fit Yes I believe it's for us to quit When we meet again introduced as friends Please don't let on that you knew me when I was hungry and it was your world Ah you fake just like a woman, yes you do You make love just like a woman, yes you do And you ache just like a woman But you break just like a little girl
