bob dylan & the band - tears of rage (take 1) lyrics

[verse 1]
we carried you in our arms
on independence day
and now you’d throw us all aside
and put us on our way
oh what daughter beneath the sun
would treat a father so
to wait upon him hand and foot
and always answer, “no?”

[chorus]
tears of rage, tears of grief
why must i always be the thief?
come to me now, you know
we’re so low
and life’s so brief

[verse 2]
we pointed out the way to go
and scratched your name in sand
though you thought it was nothing more
than a place for you to stand
and now, i want you to know that while we watched
you discover there was no one true
that i myself remember now
thought it was a childish thing to do
[chorus]
tears of rage, tears of grief
why i’m always the one who must be the thief?
come to me now, you know
we’re so alone
and life is brief

[verse 3]
it was all very painless
when you went out to receive
all that false instruction
which we never could believe
and now the heart is filled with gold
as if it was a purse
but, oh, what kind of love is this
which goes from bad to worse?

[chorus]
tears of rage, tears of grief
why i’m always the one who must be the thief?
come to me now, you know
we’re so alone
and life is brief

- bob dylan the band lyrics
