Isis (Live at Montreal Forum, Montreal, Quebec - December 1975) - Bob Dylan

Lyrics by：Bob Dylan/J. Levy

Composed by：Bob Dylan/J. Levy

I married isis on the fifth day of may

But I could not hold on to her very long

So I cut off my hair and I rode straight away

For the wild unknown country where I could not go wrong

I came to a high place of darkness and light

Dividing line ran through the center of town

I hitched up my pony to a post on the right

Went in to a laundry to wash my clothes down

A man in the corner approached me for a match

I knew right away he was not ordinary

He said are you looking for something easy to catch

Said I got no money

He said that ain't necessary

We set out that night for the cold in the north

I gave him my blanket and he gave me his word

I said where are we going he said we'd be back by the fourth

I said that's the best news that I've ever heard

I was thinking about turquoise I was thinking about gold

I was thinking about diamonds and the world's biggest necklace

As we rode through the canyons through the devilish cold

I was thinking about isis how she thought I was so reckless

How she told me that one day we would meet up again

And things would be different the next time we wed

If I only could hang on and just be her friend

I still can't remember all the best things she said

We came to the pyramids all embedded in ice

He said there's a body I'm trying to find

If I carry it out it'll bring a good price

'Twas then that I knew what he had on his mind

The wind it was a-howlin' and the snow was outrageous

We chopped through the night

And we chopped through the dawn

When he died I was hoping that it wasn't contagious

But I made up my mind that I had to go on

I broke into the tomb but the casket was empty

There was no jewels no nothing I felt I'd been had

When I saw that my partner was just being friendly

When I took up his offer I must've been mad

I picked up his body and I dragged him inside

Threw him down in the hole and I put back the cover

I said a quick prayer then I felt satisfied

Then I rode back to find isis just to tell her I love her

She was there in the meadow where the creek used to rise

Blinded by sleep and in need of a bed

I came in from the east with the sun in my eyes

I cursed her one time then I rode on ahead

She said where you been I said no place special

She said you look different I said well I guess

She said you been gone I said that's only natural

She said you going to stay I said if you want me to yes

Isis oh isis you mystical child

What drives me to you is what drives me insane

I still can remember the way that you smiled

On the fifth day of may in the drizzling rain
