"Mr. Tambourine Man" Take 3 (1/15/1965) incomplete, with band Songtext
von Bob Dylan

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I′m not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning, I′ll come following you

Though I know that evening's empire has returned into sand
Vanished from my hand, left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping
My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet, I have no one to meet
And the ancient empty street′s too dead for dreaming

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I′m not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning, I′ll come following you


Take me on a trip upon your magic swirling ship
My senses have been stripped, my hands can't feel to grip
My toes too numb to step, wait only for my boot heels to be wandering
I′m ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade, into my own parade
Cast your dancing spell my way, I promise to go under it

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I′m not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning, I'll come following you

Though you might hear laughing, spinning, swinging madly across the sun
It′s not aimed at anyone, it′s just escaping on the run
And but for the sky, there are no fences facing
And if you hear vague traces of skipping reels of rhyme
To your tambourine in time, it's just a ragged clown behind
I wouldn′t pay it any mind, it's the shadow you′re seeing that he's chasing

Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
I′m not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me

I can't, I can′t, huh
Hey, the drum is going mad, yeah
I′m goin' out of my brain
