Lyrics to Talking Woody, Bob, Bruce & Dan Blues
Talking Woody, Bob, Bruce & Dan Blues Video:
Well, when Woody Guthrie was sick and dying Bob Dylan visited him as he was lying In a hospital bed Bob sang him songs Woody smiled and said I'm glad you come You belong here Go forth and be the voice of your generation Well, above Beverly Hills one night real late I snuck past a security gate Parked by a Mercedes Benz Climbed up a barbed wire fence and over Couple of scratches, but I'd made it To the home of Bruce Springsteen Well, I found the boss asleep in bed Pillows piled up round his head I turned on the light took off my coat Stuck a theromometer down his throat Said don't talk You look pale , Boss Not at all well I said you look bad and I asked him could he Think of us as Bob and Woody I said you just rest your pretty head As I sing to you in your hospital bed He said what the hell you talking about I ain't sick This ain't a hospital And how'd you get past the security gate I said I wrote you a song called Song To Bruce With a tune I stole from one of yours To his platinum records next I pointed Said I just want to be annointedSpringsteen, I wrote you a song 'Bout a funny ol' world that's a coming along Seems sick and it's tired it's hard and it's torn It looks like it's dying and it's hardly been born He started really looking sick And I stopped singing Then Patty his wife came in I said jeez I'm sorry about your husband's incurable disease I'm here to help any way I can You know, Woody and Bob, Bruce and Dan She said honey, what am I hearing? He said baby, you know I'm in the prime of life I said down to two million in sales last time out Read the signs, Patty He said some people think this record's my best I said shhhhh, you need your rest He said there's a madman on the loose I said Woody and Bob, Dan and Bruce He sprang out of his bed and said All right, I've heard enough of this stuff He grabbed my throat and dragged me hard Down the hall and through the yard Suprising strength for a dying man Well, he threw me out the way I come Barbed wire scraped my face and thumbs I've been thinking ever since Bob and Woody Dan and the artist formerly known as Prince Dan and Madonna Bob and Woody- Dan and Bob So long, Bel Air Howdy, Malibu
