High water risin'?risin' night and day
All the gold and silver are bein' stolen away
Big Joe Turner lookin' east and west
From the dark room of his mind
He made it to Kansas City
Twelfth Street and Vine
Nothin' standing there
High water everywhere
High water risin', the shacks are slidin' down
Folks lose their possessions?folks are leaving town
Bertha Mason shook itàbroke it
Then she hung it on a wall
Says, ?You're dancin' with whom they tell you to
Or you don't dance at all?
It's tough out there
High water everywhere
I got a cravin' love for blazing speed
Got a hopped-up Mustang Ford
Jump into the wagon, love, throw your panties on the board
I can write you poems, make a strong man lose his mind
I'm no pig without a wig
I hope you treat me kind
Things are breakin' up out there
High water everywhere
High water risin', six inches 'bove my head
Coffins droppin' in the street
Like balloons made out of lead
Water pourin' into Vicksburg, don't know what I'm goin' to do
'Don't reach out for me,? she said
?Can't you see I'm drownin' too??
It's rough out there
High water everywhere
Well, George Lewis told the Englishman, the Italian and the Jew
?You can't open your mind, boys
To every conceivable point of view?
They got Charles Darwin trapped out there on Highway Five
Judge says to the High Sheriff,
?I want him dead or alive
Either one, I don't care?
High water everywhere
The Cuckoo is a pretty bird, she warbles as she flies
I'm preachin' the Word of God
I'm puttin' out your eyes
I asked Fat Nancy for somethin' to eat, she said, 'Take it off the shelf?
As great as you are a man
You'll never be greater than yourself?
I told her I didn't really care
High water everywhere
I'm gettin' up in the morning?
I believe I'll dust my broom
Keeping away from the women
I'm givin' 'em lots of room
Thunder rolling over Clarkesdale, everything is looking blue
I just can't be happy, love
Unless you're happy too
It's bad out there
High water everywhere
Bob Dylan, born Robert Allen Zimmerman in Duluth, Minnesota on May 24, 1941, is an American singer-songwriter, composer, writer, poet, painter, actor, and radio host. Considered one of the most influential figures of the last fifty years in music, popular culture, and literature, Dylan has profoundly marked the history of American music. His career began in the 1960s, when he emerged as a key figure in the American protest movement. Songs like *Blowin' in the Wind* and *The Times They Are A-Changin'* became anthems for pacifist and civil rights movements. The lyrics of his early songs addressed political, social, and philosophical themes, influenced by literary authors such as Walt Whitman and William Blake, challenging the conventions of pop music and appealing to the counterculture of the time. Over the years, Dylan has expanded and personalized his musical style, exploring genres such as country, blues, rock, and gospel. Among his most important albums: *The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan* (1963), *Bringing It All Back Home* (1965) and *Highway 61 Revisited* (1965). In 1976 he released the album *Desire*, marking a new chapter in his career with blues and country influences. In 2016, he received the Nobel Prize in Literature «for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition».
