Words and Music by Bob Dylan)



I've got my back to the sun 'cause the light is too intense

I can see what everybody in the world is up against

Can't turn back, you can't come back, sometimes we push too far

One day you'll open up your eyes and you'll see where you are



Sugar baby get on down the road, you ain't got no brains nohow

You went years without me, might as well keep goin' now



Some of these bootleggers, they make pretty good stuff

Plenty of places to hide things here if you want to hide them bad enough

I'm staying with Aunt Sally, but you know she not really my aunt

Some of these memories, you can learn to live with and some of'em you can't



Sugar baby get on down the line, you ain't got no brains nohow

You went years without me, might as well keep goin' now



The ladies down in Darktown, they're doin' the Darktown strut

Y'always got to be prepared, but you never know for what

There ain't no limit to the amount of trouble women bring

Love is pleasing, love is teasing, love not an evil thing



Sugar baby get on down the road, you ain't got no brains nohow

You went years without me, might as well keep goin' now



Every moment of existence seems like some dirty trick

Happiness can come suddenly and leave just as quick

Any minute of the day, the bubble can burst

Try to make things better for someone sometimes you just end up makin' it thousand times worse



Sugar baby get on down the road, you ain't got no brains nohow

You went years without me, might as well keep goin' now



Your charms have broken many a heart and mine is surely one

You got a way of tearin' the world apart, love, see what you've done

Just as sure as we're livin', just as sure as you're born

Look up, look up, seek your Maker, 'fore Gabriel blows his horn



Sugar baby, get on down the line, you ain't got no sense nohow

You went years without me, might as well keep goin' now
