Blonde on Blonde album at Amazon.com
Bob Dylan's, "I want you"
The Lyrics:
The guilty undertaker sighs,
The lonesome organ grinder cries,
The silver saxophones say I should refuse you.
The cracked bells and washed-out horns
Blow into my face with scorn,
But it's not that way,
I wasn't born to lose you.
I want you, I want you,
I want you so bad,
Honey, I want you.
Why:
The song is very uptempo and cheery, but the lyrics tells the tail of Dylan wanting a woman. "I want you, I need you, I want you so bad".
