Well I'm looking the world over
Looking far off into the East
And I see my baby coming
She's walking with the village priest
I feel a change coming on
And the last part of the day is already gone
We got so much in common
We strive for the same old ends
And I just can't wait
Wait for us to become friends
I feel a change coming on
And the fourth part of the day is already gone
Life is for love
And they say that love is blind
If you want to live easy
Baby pack your clothes with mine
I feel a change coming on
And the fourth part of the day is already gone
Well now what's the use in dreamin'
You got better things to do
Dreams never did work for me anyway
Even when they did come true
You are as whorish as ever
Baby you could start a fire
I must be losing my mind
You're the object of my desire
I feel a change coming on
And the fourth part of the day is already gone
I'm listening to Billy Joe Shaver
And I'm reading James Joyce
Some people they tell me
I got the blood of the land in my voice
Everybody got all the money
Everybody got all the beautiful clothes
Everybody got all the flowers
I don't have one single rose
I feel a change coming on
And the fourth part of the day is already gone

LAND.
It's definitely blood of the land. I saw him do this one live and I specifically watched his lips at this part.
LOL
people wake up! the blood of the lamb is JESUS CHRIST, lord and savior.
thanks Marc :)
thanks Marc :)
Land or Lamb
I read an interview and they talk about that somebody actually told Bob once that he had the Blood of the Land in his Voice...
Blood of the lamb, sounds me
Blood of the lamb, sounds me like a sacrifice in a Biblical sense...
Blood of the land, like all the suffering in this world
Anyway the meaning could be the same
yuppers
thats what i am hearing,
some people they tell me
u got the BLOOD OF THE LAMB
in ur voice
and
u r as WHORISH as ever
baby u can start a fire
get it right people, bob dylan tells it like it is.
Priest?
Thanks for this Mark.
But surely Bob's baby's walkin' with the village priest?
Whorish as ever
as i said before i read he is quotting letters of Joyce to his wife, he called her that way...and this makes sense cause he say he is reading Joyce in the song...
Blood of the Lamb
I think he says 'blood of the lamb' not 'blood the land.' Could be wrong, or course, but I think its a reference to all those who've said he's got the Holy Spirit in his music.
I Feel A Change Comin' On .......and this is a beauty, Bob!!!

I Feel A Change Comin' On
Well I'm lookin the world over
Looking far off into the east
And i see my baby comin'
she's walking with the village beast
I feel a change comin' on
and the last part of the day's already gone
We got so much in common
we strive for the same old ends
And I just can't wait
wait for us to become friends
I feel a change comin' on
and the fourth part of the day's already gone
Well life is for love
And they say that love is blind
If you wanna live easy
Baby, pack your clothes with mine
I feel a change comin' on
and the fourth part of the day's already gone
Well now what's the use in dreaming
You got better things to do
Dreams never did work for me anyway
Even when they did come true
You are as porous as ever
Baby you can start a fire
I must be losing my mind
You're the object of my desire
I feel a change comin' on
and the fourth part of the day's already gone
I'm listening to Billy Joe Shaver
And i'm reading James Joyce
