《The Wicked Messenger》歌词

[00:00:00] The Wicked Messenger - Bob Dylan

[00:00:06] There was a wicked messenger

[00:00:09] From Eli he did come

[00:00:13] With a mind that multiplied

[00:00:15] The smallest matter

[00:00:19] When questioned who had sent for him

[00:00:22] He answered with his thumb

[00:00:25] For his tongue it could not speak but only flatter

[00:00:44] He stayed behind the assembly hall

[00:00:47] It was there he made his bed

[00:00:51] Oftentimes he could be seen returning

[00:00:57] Until one day he just appeared

[00:01:00] With a note in his hand which read

[00:01:04] "The soles of my feet I swear they're burning "

[00:01:22] Oh the leaves began to fallin'

[00:01:24] And the seas began to part

[00:01:29] And the people that confronted him were many

[00:01:35] And he was told but these few words

[00:01:38] Which opened up his heart

[00:01:41] "If ye cannot bring good news then don't bring any "
