Bob Dylan - Talkin' World War III Blues lyrics

One time ago a crazy dream came to me I dreamt I was walkin' into World War Three Went to the doctor the very next day To see what kinda words he could say, he said it was a bad dream "I wouldn't worry 'bout it none, though Them old dreams are only in your head" I said, "Hold it, Doc, a World War pa**ed through my brain" He said, "Nurse, get your pad, the boy's insane" He grabbed my arm, I said "Ouch" As I landed on the psychiatric couch, he said, "Tell me about it" Well, the whole thing started at 3 o'clock fast, it was all over by quarter past I was down in the sewer with some little lover When I peeked out from a manhole cover Wonderin' who turned the lights on us Well, I got up and walked around, up and down the lonesome town I stood a-wondering which way to go I lit a cigarette on a parking meter and walked on down the road It was a normal day Well, I rung me a fallout shelter bell and I leaned my head and I give a yell "Gimme a string bean, I'm a hungry man" A shotgun fired and away I ran I don't blame them too much though, they didn't know me Down the corner by the hot-dog stand, I seen a man I said, "Howdy friend, I guess it's just us two" He screamed a bit and away he flew Thought I was a Communist Well, I spied a girl and before she could leave, I said "Let's go and play Adam and Eve" I took her by the hand and my heart it was thumpin' She said, "Hey man, you crazy or sumpin'? You see what happened last time they started" Well, I seen a Cadillac window uptown, there was nobody around I got into the driver's seat and I drove 42nd Street In my Cadillac Good car to drive after a war Well, I remember seein' some ad So I turned on my Conelrad But I didn't pay the Con Ed bill So the radio didn't work so well Turned on my record-player It was "Rock-A-Day Johnny," singing "Tell Your Ma, Tell Your Pa Our Love's A-Gonna Grow Ooh-wah, Ooh-wah" I was feelin' kinda lonesome and blue And I needed somebody to talk to So I called up the operator of time Just to hear a voice of some kind "When you hear the beep It will be three o'clock" She said that for over an hour And I hung up Well, the doctor interrupted me just about then Sayin, "Hey I've been havin' the same old dreams But mine was a little different, you see I dreamt that the only person left after the war was me I didn't see you around" Well, now time pa**ed and now it seems everybody's having them dreams Everybody sees theirself walkin' around with no one else Half of the people can be part-right all of the time, some of the people can be all right part of the time But all the people can't be all right all the time, I think Abraham Lincoln said that "I'll let you be in my dream if I can be in yours" I said that
