[00:00.00]Man in the Long Black Coat - Bob Dylan
[01:10.94]Crickets are chirpin' the water is high
[01:15.14]There's a soft cotton dress on the line hangin' dry
[01:20.03]The windows wide open African trees
[01:24.84]Bent over backwards from a hurricane breeze
[01:32.65]Not a word of goodbye not even a note
[01:37.48]She'd gone with the man in the long black coat
[01:45.78]Somebody seen him hangin' around
[01:50.16]At the old dance hall on the outskirts of town
[01:54.83]He looked into her eyes when she stopped him to ask
[01:59.35]If he wanted to dance he had a face like a mask
[02:07.82]Somebody said from the Bible he'd quote
[02:12.15]There was dust on the man in the long black coat
[02:25.41]Preacher was a-talkin' there's a sermon he gave
[02:29.47]He said "Every mans conscience is vile and depraved
[02:34.54]You cannot depend on it to be your guide
[02:38.96]When it's you who must keep it satisfied
[02:47.00]It ain't easy to swallow it sticks in the throat
[02:51.67]She gave her heart to the man in the long black coat
[03:00.13]There are no mistakes in life some people say
[03:04.58]And it's true sometimes you can see it that way
[03:09.36]But people don't live or die people just float
[03:14.03]She went with the man in the long black coat
[03:26.78]There's smoke on the water it's been there since June
[03:31.69]Tree trunks uprooted beneath the high crescent moon
[03:35.97]Feel the pulse and vibration and the rumblin' force
[03:40.92]Somebody is out there beating on a dead horse
[03:48.98]She never said nothin' there was nothin' she wrote
[03:53.34]She'd gone with the man in the long black coat
