A ballad for Hillary

[John Q. Citizen]

You must leave now, take what you need, you think will last.
But whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast.
Yonder stands your orphan with his gun,
Crying like a fire in the sun.
Look out the saints are comin' through
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.

The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense.
Take what you have gathered from coincidence.
The empty-handed painter from your streets
Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets.
This sky, too, is folding under you
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.

All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home.
All your reindeer armies, are all going home.
The lover who just walked out your door
Has taken all his blankets from the floor.
The carpet, too, is moving under you
And it's all over now, Baby Blue.

Leave your stepping stones behind, something calls for you.
Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you.
The vagabond who's rapping at your door
Is standing in the clothes that you once wore.
Strike another match, go start anew
And it's all over now, Baby Blue. - Bob Dylan, It's All Over Now Baby Blue

How did Bob get it so right so long ago?

5. A ballad for Barack

Nothing was delivered
And I tell this truth to you,
Not out of spite or anger
But simply because it's true.
Now, I hope you won't object to this,
Giving back all of what you owe,
The fewer words you have to waste on this,
The sooner you can go.

Nothing is better, nothing is best,
Take heed of this and get plenty of rest.

Nothing was delivered
But I can't say I sympathize
With what your fate is going to be,
Yes, for telling all those lies.
Now you must provide some answers
For what you sell has not been received,
And the sooner you come up with them,
The sooner you can leave.

Nothing is better, nothing is best,
Take heed of this and get plenty rest.

(Now you know)
Nothing was delivered
And it's up to you to say
Just what you had in mind
When you made ev'rybody pay.
No, nothing was delivered,
Yes, 'n' someone must explain
That as long as it takes to do this
Then that's how long that you'll remain.

Nothing is better, nothing is best,
Take heed of this and get plenty rest.

8. "Take heed of this and get plenty of rest?" Well alrighty.....

Obama delivered on a world class campaign. He took Hillary completely by surprise, she didn't deliver, she went broke, she came back, Obama won more delegates in Texas, and it's all over now, baby blue.

So who wrote the song you posted?

9. Bob, of course. If he wins, listen to it about 6 months after Inauguration Day.

7. Another shitty Obama DU "greeting card"

[John Q. Citizen]

10. Is Dylan dead to you, or just

Duers who use Dylan songs to illustrate their 'moronic' points?

Hey, I think Hill should throw in the towel instead of acting all irresponsibly toward the party, toward Obama, and toward herself.. That's my opinion.

11. You have a hell of a lot of nerve staking any claim on a dylan song

[John Q. Citizen]

12. Song dedications as political terrorism. Oh my.
