Sitting On a Barbed Wire Fence (Take 2) - Bob Dylan

I might look like a girly girl A little princess in mama's pearls But I got something they don't see A loaded shotgun in the backseat So don't go messing with me I'm a little bit crazy when I wanna be You can't break me if you tried 'Cause I'm barbed wire, I'm strong and steady When the bullets fire you know that I'll be ready 'Cause I ain't gonna break, gonna do what it takes Come hell or high water, gonna stare it in the face I'm barbed wire My daddy taught me all I know Like how to fix my truck on the side of the road And if there's a party, you know I'm there I can have a good time anywhere Yeah, life goes by so fast I'm living like I ain't afraid to make it last Don't you know I'm standing tall? 'Cause I'm barbed wire, I'm strong and steady When the bullets fire you know that I'll be ready 'Cause I ain't gonna break, gonna do what it takes Come hell or high water, gonna stare it in the face I'm barbed wire I'm barbed wire, I'm strong and steady When the bullets fire you know that I'll be ready 'Cause I ain't gonna break, gonna do what it takes Come hell or high water, gonna stare it in the face I'm barbed wire I'm barbed wire, ooh, yeah I ain't gonna break, gonna do what it takes I'm barbed wire

So tight, this crown of barbed wire It's destiny I wear It splits the skin to the soul This jagged wreath I bear This rusted empire I own Bleed as I rust on this throne Pierce me with torment And all the rust that I own So tight, this crown of barbed wire So tight, this crown of barbed wire So tight, this crown Fist tight, it stains conviction Drips down to bloodshot eyes It crushes down what is real Deep crimson blots the skies This rusted empire I own Bleed as I rust on this throne Pierce me with torment And all the rust that I own So tight, this crown of barbed wire So tight, this crown of barbed wire So tight, this crown This rusted еmpire I own Bleed as I rust on this throne Piercе me with torment And all the rust that I own So tight, this crown of barbed wire So tight, this crown of barbed wire So tight, this crown

Stake my future on a hell of a past Looks like tomorrow is coming on fast Ain't complaining 'bout what I got Seen better times, but who has not? Silvio, silver and gold Won't buy back the beat of a heart grown cold Silvio, I gotta go Find out something only dead men know Honest as the next jade rolling that stone When I come knocking don't throw me no bone I'm an old boll weevil looking for a home If you don't like it you can leave me alone I can snap my fingers and require the rain From a clear blue sky and turn it off again I can stroke your body and relieve your pain And charm the whistle off an evening train Silvio, silver and gold Won't buy back the beat of a heart grown cold Silvio, I gotta go Find out something only dead men know I give what I got until I got no more I take what I get until I even the score You know I love you and furthermore When it's time to go you got an open door I can tell you fancy, I can tell you plain You give something up for everything you gain Since every pleasure's got an edge of pain Pay for your ticket and don't complain Silvio, silver and gold Won't buy back the beat of a heart grown cold Silvio, I gotta go, go Find out something only dead men know One of these days and it won't be long Going down in the valley and sing my song I will sing it loud and sing it strong Let the echo decide if I was right or wrong Silvio, silver and gold Won't buy back the beat of a heart grown cold Silvio, I gotta go Find out something only dead men know Silvio, silver and gold Won't buy back the beat of a heart grown cold Silvio, I gotta go Find out something only dead men know Silvio, silver and gold Won't buy back the beat of a heart grown cold Silvio, I gotta go Find out something only dead men know Come on Come on
