Its been raining for a million years
And the weather just wont turn
Try to build a fire round your place
And the damned logs refuse to burn
The braindead have been sitting on their sunbeds
Wheres heaven for its own sake
Lying dead or half-forgotten
At the bottom of a bottomless lake
But when the sun comes out
The worlds gonna go crazy
Everybodys gonna move their arms about
Cos what they believed is turned inside-out
When the sun comes out
Its been raining since I dont know when
Were all in for a big surprise
Go to the woods in your dreams tonight
And when you awake you wont believe your eyes
Its all the rage, itll make the front page
Gotta get the gutter press going down the drain
Butter melts if you leave it near the window
And its time to try and use a deckchair again
But when the sun comes out....
When the sun comes out
His pa will be so disappointed
To find out his son was double-jointed
Some will flounder
Some will be anointed
The son couldnt wait to do a turn-about
Its been raining but its gonna stop
Cats and dogs will shake themselves
Time to work, time to pick those hops
I gotta go and mend the greenhouse shelves
This was meant, well, its all heaven-sent
Go out naked and have no fear
One boy spent a little life in torment
But now hes grinning from ear to ear
Now hes grinning from here to here...
John Wesley Harding è il nome d'arte di Robert Allen Zimmerman, meglio conosciuto come Bob Dylan. L'album "John Wesley Harding", pubblicato nel 1967, segna un cambio di direzione nella sua carriera musicale. Dopo l'esplosione del folk rock e le proteste sociali degli anni '60, Dylan si allontana da sonorità più elettriche e impegnate per abbracciare uno stile country-folk più introspettivo e minimalista. L'album presenta canzoni come "All Along the Watchtower", "The Ballad of Frankie Lee and Judas Priest" e "I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine", che riflettono un approccio più personale e poetico, con testi spesso oscuri e enigmatici. L'influenza del country music è evidente in arrangiamenti semplici e melodie orecchiabili. John Wesley Harding rappresenta una fase di transizione per Dylan, segnando l'inizio di un percorso musicale che lo porterà a esplorare nuovi generi e sonorità.
