TRACK TALK #106 Workingman's Blues #2 Bd_com10

Lyrics
There's an evenin' haze settlin' over town
Starlight by the edge of the creek
The buyin' power of the proletariat's gone down
Money's gettin' shallow and weak

Well, the place I love best is a sweet memory
It's a new path that we trod
They say low wages are a reality
If we want to compete abroad

My cruel weapons have been put on the shelf
Come sit down on my knee
You are dearer to me than myself
As you yourself can see

While I'm listening to the steel rails hum
Got both eyes tight shut
Just sitting here trying to keep the hunger from
Creeping it's way into my gut

Meet me at the bottom, don't lag behind
Bring me my boots and shoes
You can hang back or fight your best on the front line
Sing a little bit of these workingman's blues

Well, I'm sailin' on back, ready for the long haul
Tossed by the winds and the seas
I'll drag 'em all down to hell and I'll stand 'em at the wall
I'll sell 'em to their enemies

I'm tryin' to feed my soul with thought
Gonna sleep off the rest of the day
Sometimes no one wants what we got
Sometimes you can't give it away

Now the place is ringed with countless foes
Some of them may be deaf and dumb
No man, no woman knows
The hour that sorrow will come

In the dark I hear the night birds call
I can feel a lover's breath
I sleep in the kitchen with my feet in the hall
Sleep is like a temporary death

Meet me at the bottom, don't lag behind
Bring me my boots and shoes
You can hang back or fight your best on the front line
Sing a little bit of these workingman's blues

Well, they burned my barn and they stole my horse
I can't save a dime
I got to be careful, I don't want to be forced
Into a life of continual crime

I can see for myself that the sun is sinking
How I wish you were here to see
Tell me now, am I wrong in thinking
That you have forgotten me?

Now they worry and they hurry and they fuss and they fret
They waste your nights and days
Them I will forget
But you I'll remember always

Old memories of you to me have clung
You've wounded me with your words
Gonna have to straighten out your tongue
It's all true, everything you've heard

Meet me at the bottom, don't lag behind
Bring me my boots and shoes
You can hang back or fight your best on the front line
Sing a little bit of these workingman's blues

In you, my friend, I find no blame
Wanna look in my eyes, please do
No one can ever claim
That I took up arms against you

All across the peaceful sacred fields
They will lay you low
They'll break your horns and slash you with steel
I say it so it must be so

Now I'm down on my luck and I'm black and blue
Gonna give you another chance
I'm all alone and I'm expecting you
To lead me off in a cheerful dance

I got a brand new suit and a brand new wife
I can live on rice and beans
Some people never worked a day in their life
Don't know what work even means

Meet me at the bottom, don't lag behind
Bring me my boots and shoes
You can hang back or fight your best on the front line
Sing a little bit of these workingman's blues

je conteste, je ne la considère pas comme chef d'oeuvre même si je pense que c'est "sans doute" une bonne chanson.

J'ai beau creuser cette chanson n'a aucun effet sur moi.

Mais je suis sûr qu'un jour elle me rentrera dedans sans prévenir comme Nettie Moore l'a fait

Sur Modern Times, je la place après Ain't Talkin' et Nettie Moore. Belle chanson oui. D'ailleurs elle conviendrait parfaitement à l'ambiance actuelle du NET

Dans mes "25 les plus écoutés" iTunes.
(En première position, en plus, si on omet mes compos que mes gosses avaient écouté en boucle à une certaine époque.)
Les stats, ça ne ment pas.

Moi aussi je lui préfère les autres ballades de l'album, de "Spirit on the Water" à "Nettie Moore" en passant par "When The Deal Goes Down" mais comme j'aime beaucoup l'album, je l'aime beaucoup.

Elle a un côté folk-song prolo et est très touchante, surtout quand il chante :
"I can see for myself that the sun is sinking
How I wish you were here to see
Tell me now, am I wrong in thinking
That you have forgotten me?"

J'ai eu l'occasion de la jouer avec un pote en faisant la manche dans les rues de Barcelone alors que le soleil se couchait. Donc ça m'a marqué, ce passage en particulier.

Et une version de 2009. Modern Times est un des grands albums de Dylan et Workingman's Blues #2 une grande chanson.




La voix qui rape, un Dylan qui bouge, de l'harmonica .. que demander de plus?
