Bob Dylan My Wife's Home Town song lyrics

Well, I didn't come here to deal with a doggone thing

I just came here to hear the drummer's cymbal ring

There ain't no way you can put me down

I just wanna say that hell's my wife's home town

Well, there's reasons for that and reasons for this

I can't think of any just now but I know they exist

I'm sittin' in the sun 'til my skin turns brown

I just wanna say that hell's my wife's home town

Home town, home town

She can make you steal, make you rob

Give you the hives, make you lose your job

Make things bad, she can make things worse

She got stuff more potent than a gypsy curse

One of these days I'll end up on the run

I'm pretty sure she'll make me kill someone

I'm goin' inside, roll the shutters down

I just wanna say that hell's my wife's home town

Well, there's plenty to remember, plenty to forget

I still can remember the day we met

I lost my reasons a long ago

My love for her is all I know

State gone broke, the county's dry

Don't be lookin' at me with that evil eye

Keep on walkin', don't be hangin' around

I'm tellin' you again that hell's my wife's home town

Home town, home town
