PERCY'S SONG (TAKE 1 10.23.63) 作词 : Dylan 作曲 : Dylan Bad news, bad news Came to me where I sleep Turn, turn, turn again Sayin' one of your friends Is in trouble deep Turn, turn to the rain And the wind Oh what is the trouble tell me once to my ear Turn, turn, turn again Juliet prison And ninety-nine years Turn, turn to the rain And the wind Oh what is the charge Of how this came to be? Turn, turn, turn again Manslaughter In the highest of degrees Turn, turn to the rain And the wind I sat down and wrote The best words I could write Turn, turn, turn again Explaining to the judge I'd be there by Wednesday night Turn, turn to the rain And the wind Without a reply I left by the moon Turn, turn, turn again And was in his chambers By the next afternoon Turn, turn to the rain And the wind Did you tell me the facts I said without fear Turn, turn, turn again That a friend of mine Would get ninety-nine years Turn, turn to the rain And the wind A crash on the highway Flew the car to a field Turn, turn, turn again There was four persons did And he was at the wheel Turn, turn to the rain And the wind And is maybe true that he's got a sentence to serve Turn, turn, turn again But ninety-nine years He just don't deserve Turn, turn to the rain And the wind And at that the judge spoke Out of the side of his mouth Turn, turn, turn again But the witness who saw He left little doubt Turn, turn to the rain And the wind But I know him as good As I'm knowin' myself Turn, turn, turn again And he wouldn't harm a life That belonged to someone else Turn, turn to the rain And the wind Too late, too late For his case it is sealed Turn, turn, turn again His sentence is passed And it cannot be repealed Turn, turn to the rain And the wind But he ain't no criminal And his crime it is none Turn, turn, turn again What happened to him Could happen to anyone Turn, turn to the rain And the wind And at that the judge jerked forward And his face it did freeze Turn, turn, turn again Sayin', "Could you kindly leave my office now, please" Turn, turn to the rain And the wind The room was funny And I stood up so slow Turn, turn, turn again With no other choice Except but far to go Turn, turn to the rain And the wind I walked down the hall way And I heard his door slam Turn, turn, turn again I walked down the courthouse stairs And I did not understand Turn, turn to the rain And the wind And I played my guitar Through the night to the day Turn, turn, turn again And the only tune My guitar could play Was, "Oh the cruel rain and the wind"
