  Versión de Joan Baez de la canción compuesta por Bob Dylan en 1962  Letra It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe If'n you don't know by now And it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe It'll never do somehow When your rooster crows at the break of dawn Look out your window and I'll be gone You're the reason I'm a-traveling on But don't think twice, it's all right … And it ain't no use in turning on your light, babe That light I never knowed And it ain't no use in turning on your light, babe I'm on the dark side of the road But I wish there was somethin' you would do or say To try and make me change my mind and stay But we never did too much talking anyway But don't think twice, it's all right … So it ain't no use in calling out my name, gal Like you never done before And it ain't no use in calling out my name, gal I can't hear you anymore I'm a-thinking and a-wonderin' walking down the road I ...

Girl from the North Country

Imagen
  Girl from the North Country es una canción de Bob Dylan, de 1963 . Traigo la versión a dúo con Johnny Cash.  Letra: If you're travelin' in the north country fair Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline Remember me to one who lives there She once was a true love of mine If you go when the snowflakes storm When the rivers freeze and summer ends Please see if she's wearing a coat so warm To keep her from the howlin' winds Please see for me if her hair hangs long If it rolls and flows all down her breast Please see for me if her hair hangs long For that's the way I remember her best I'm a-wonderin' if she remembers me at all Many times I've often prayed In the darkness of my night In the brightness of my day So, if you're travelin' in the north country fair Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline Remember me to one who lives there She once was a true love of mine

I shall be released

Imagen
   Canción compuesta por  Bob Dylan para The Band, en 1968. En la versión de Nina Simone. Canción de la esperanza frente a los descartes, frente al límite de las cosas. Letra They say everything can be replaced They say every distance is not near So I remember every face Of every man who put me here I see my light come shining From the west down to the east Any day now, any day now I shall be released They say every man needs protection They say that every man must fall Yet I swear I see my reflection Somewhere so high above this wall I see my light come shining From the west down to the east Any day now, any day now I shall be released Now, yonder stands a man in this lonely crowd A man who swears he's not to blame All day long I hear him shouting so loud Just crying out that he was framed I see my light come shining From the west down to the east Any day now, any day now I shall be released

With God on our side

Imagen
  Canción de Bob Dylan de 1963. Canción del egocentrismo y del dios a nuestra medida. "Jesús fue traicionado por un beso, pero no puedo pensar por ti Usted tendrá que decidir, si Judas Iscariote tenía a Dios de su lado (...) Si Dios está de nuestro lado, detendrá la próxima guerra". Letra Oh my name it ain't nothin' My age it means less The country I come from Is called the Midwest I was taught and brought up there The laws to abide And that land that I live in Has God on its side Oh, the history books tell it They tell it so well The cavalries charged The Indians fell The cavalries charged The Indians died Oh, the country was young With God on its side The Spanish-American War had its day And the Civil War, too Was soon laid away And the names of the heroes I was made to memorize With guns in their hands And God on their side The First World War, boys It came and it went The reason for fighting I never did get But I learned to accept it Accept it with pride For you d...

Blowin' in the wind

  ¿Cuántas veces puede un hombre girar la cabeza, y fingir que simplemente no ve? Canción obligada, escrita por Bob Dylan de 1962 Letra How many roads must a man walk down Before you can call him a man? Yes, and how many seas must a white dove sail Before she sleeps in the sand? Yes, and how many times must cannonballs fly Before they're forever banned? The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind The answer is blowin' in the wind Yes, and how many years can a mountain exist Before it is washed to the sea? Yes, and how many years can some people exist Before they're allowed to be free? Yes, and how many times must a man turn his head And pretend that he just doesn't see? The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind The answer is blowin' in the wind How many times must a man look up Before he can see the sky? Yes, and how many ears must one man have Before he can hear people cry? Yes, and how many deaths will it take till he knows That too many people have ...

Lonesome town

Imagen
  Canción escrita por Baker Knight en 1958, en la versión de  Ricky Nelson. Algo mas desgarrada, la versión de Tom Petty y Bob Dylan  Letra There's a place where lovers go To cry their troubles away And they call it 'Lonesome Town' Where the broken hearts stay You can buy a dream or two To last you all through the years And the only price you pay Is a heart full of tears Goin' down to Lonesome Town Where the broken hearts stay Goin' down to Lonesome Town To cry my troubles away In the town of broken dreams The streets are filled with regret Maybe down in Lonesome Town I can learn to forget Maybe down in Lonesome Town I can learn to forget Lonesome Town
