Testi Joan Baez - The 33rd Of August
Testi-musica-canzoni.it > Testi lettera J > Joan Baez > Blessed Are - The 33rd Of AugustToday, thereīs no salvation, the bandīs packed up and gone
Left me standing with my penny in my hand
thereīs a big crowd at the station where the blind man sings his song
But he can see what they canīt understand.
(CHORUS)
Itīs the thirty-third of August and Iīm finīlly touching down
Eight days from Sunday finds me Saturday bound.
Once I stumbled through the darkness, tumbled to my knees
A thousand voices screaminī in my brain
Woke up in a squad car, busted down for vagrancy
Outside my cell as sure as hell, it looked like rain.
But now Iīve got my dangerous feelings under lock and chain
Guess I killed my violent nature with a smile
Though the demons danced and sang their song within my fevered brain
Not all my God-like thoughts, Lord, were defiled.
