Pay In Blood - Bob Dylan
In Scarlet Town where
I was born
There's ivy leaf and
silver thorn
The streets have names
that you can't pronounce
Gold is down to a
quarter of an ounce
The music starts
and the people sway
Everybody says Are
you going my way
Uncle Tom still workin'
for Uncle Bill
Scarlet Town is under
the hill

Scarlet Town in the
month of May
Sweet William Holme
on his deathbed lay
Mistress Mary by the
side of the bed
Kissin' his face and
puttin' prayers on
his head
So brave and true so
gentle is he
I'll weep for him as he
would weep for me
Little Boy Blue come
your blow horn
In Scarlet Town where
I was born

Scarlet Town in the
hot noon hours
There's palmleaf
shadows and
scattered flowers
Beggars crouching
at the gate
Help comes but it
comes too late
By marble slabs and
in fields of stone
You make your humble
wishes known
I touched the garment
but the hem was torn
In Scarlet Town where
I was born

In Scarlet Town the
end is near
The Seven Wonders
of the World are here
The evil and the good
livin' side by side
All human forms seem
glorified
Put your heart on a
platter and see who
will bite
See who will hold you
and kiss you
good night
There's walnut groves
and maplewood
In Scarlet Town cryin'
won't do no good

In Scarlet Town you
fight your father's foes
Up on the hill a chilly
wind blows
You fight 'em on high
and you fight 'em
down in
You fight 'em with
whiskey morphine
and gin
You've got legs that
can drive men mad
A lot of things we
didn't do that I wish
we had
In Scarlet Town the
sky is clear
You'll wish to God that
you stayed right here

Set 'em Joe play
Walkin' the Floor
Play it for
my flatchested
junkie whore
I'm staying up late
I'm making amends
While we smile all
heaven descends
If love is a sin then
beauty is a crime
All things are beautiful
in their time
The black and the
white the yellow and
the brown
It's all right there in
front of you in Scarlet
Town
