A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall

And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
And it's a hard
Heard one person starve, many people laughin'

And it's a hard
A white ladder all covered with water
What did you see, my darling, young one?
And it's a hard
And it's a hard
And it's a hard
Who did you meet, my darling young one?

And it's a hard
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it

Walk to depths of the deepest black forest
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
And it's a hard, hard, hard, hard

Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutter

And it's a hard
I've stumbled on the side twelve misty mountains
And what did you hear, my blue eyed son?

What did you hear, my darling young one

Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison
I'm goin' back out 'fore the rain starts fallin'
Where black is the color and none is the number
And it's a hard
I saw a newborn baby with white wolves all around it
And it's a hard

And it's a hard
Then I'll stand in the ocean until I start sinking

I saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on it
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall
And reflect it from the mountains so all souls can see it
It's a hard
And it's a hard rain's a-gonna fall

I saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin'
And it's a hard
Stepped in the middle of seven sad forests

And what did you see, my blue eyed son?
Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten
I've been ten thousand miles in mouth of a graveyard
I saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young children
Walked and I've crawled on six crooked highways
Heard the sound of a clown who cried in the alley

Heard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole world
Where the pellets of poison are flooding waters
I saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all broken

I heard the sound of thunder that roared out a warning
And it's a hard
And it's a hard
And it's a hard
Where people are many and their hands are all empty
Oh, who you did meet, my blue eyed son?
Been out in front of a dozen dead oceans
But I know my song well before I start singing
Heard one hundred drummers whose hands were a blazin'
Heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin'
Where the executioner's face is always well hidden
I saw a room full of men with their hammers a bleedin'
