A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall

A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall - Joan Baez (瓊·貝茲)

Oh where have you been my blue eyed son

Oh where have you been my darling young one

I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountains

I've walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways

I've stepped in the middle of seven sad forests

I've been out in front of a dozen dead oceans

I've been ten thousand miles in the mouth of a graveyard

And it's a hard and it's a hard it's a hard and it's a hard

And it's a hard rain's a gonna fall

Oh what did you see my blue eyed son

Oh what did you see my darling young one

I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves all around it

I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it

I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin'

I saw a room full of men with their hammers a bleedin'

I saw a white ladder all covered with water

I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken

I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children

And it's a hard and it's a hard it's a hard it's a hard

And it's a hard rain's a gonna fall

And what did you hear my blue eyed son

And what did you hear my darling young one

I heard the sound of a thunder it roared out a warnin'

Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world

Heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a blazin'

Heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin'

Heard one person starve I heard many people laughin'

Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter

Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley

And it's a hard and it's a hard it's a hard it's a hard

And it's a hard rain's a gonna fall
