Bob Dylan - By and by

By and by, Im breathing a lovers sigh. Well, Im sitting on my watch So I can be on time Im singing loves praises With sugar-coated rhymes. By and by, On you Im casting my eye. Im paintin the town, Swingin my partner around. Well, I know who I can depend on, I know who to trust Im watchin the roads, Im studying the dust I'm paintin' the town Making my last go round. Well, Im scuffling, and Im shuffling And Im walking on briars Im not even acquainted with my own desires Im roamin slow, Im doing all I know. Im telling myself, Ive found true happiness That Ive still got a dream that hasnt been repossessed Im roamin' slow Going where the wild roses grow. Well, the future for me Is already a thing of the past You were my first love And you will be my last. Papa gone mad, Mama, shes feeling sad. Well, Im gonna baptize you in fire So you can sin no more Im gonna establish my rule Through civil war Gonna make you see Just how loyal and true a man can be
