歌词

  • Talkin' Bear Mountain Picnic M – Bob Dylan
  • I saw it advertised one day
  • Bear Mountain picnic was comin’ my way
  • “Come along ’n’ take a trip
  • We’ll bring you up there on a ship
  • Bring the wife family
  • Bring the whole kids
  • Yippee!
  • Well, I run right down ’n’ bought a ticket
  • To this Bear Mountain Picnic
  • But little did I realize
  • I was in for a picnic surprise
  • Had nothin’ to do with mountains
  • I didn’t even come close to a bear
  • Took the wife ’n’ kids down to the pier
  • Six thousand people there
  • Everybody had a ticket for the trip
  • “Oh well,” I said, “it’s a pretty big ship
  • Besides, anyway, the more the merrier”
  • Well, we all got on ’n’ what d’ya think
  • That big old boat started t’ sink
  • More people kept a-pilin’ on
  • That old ship was a-slowly goin’ down
  • Funny way t’ start a picnic
  • Well, I soon lost track of m’ kids ’n’ wife
  • So many people there I never saw in m’ life
  • That old ship sinkin’ down in the water
  • Six thousand people tryin’ t’ kill each other
  • Dogs a-barkin’, cats a-meowin’
  • Women screamin’, fists a-flyin’, babies cryin’
  • Cops a-comin’, me a-runnin’
  • Maybe we just better call off the picnic
  • I got shoved down ’n’ pushed around
  • All I could hear there was a screamin’ sound
  • Don’t remember one thing more
  • Just remember wakin’ up on a little shore
  • Head busted, stomach cracked
  • Feet splintered, I was bald, naked . . .
  • Quite lucky to be alive though
  • Feelin’ like I climbed outa m’ casket
  • I grabbed back hold of m’ picnic basket
  • Took the wife ’n’ kids ’n’ started home
  • Wishin’ I’d never got up that morn
  • Now, I don’t care just what you do
  • If you wanta have a picnic, that’s up t’ you
  • But don’t tell me about it, I don’t wanta hear it
  • ’Cause, see, I just lost all m’ picnic spirit
  • Stay in m’ kitchen, have m’ own picnic . . .
  • In the bathroom
  • Now, it don’t seem to me quite so funny
  • What some people are gonna do f’r money
  • There’s a bran’ new gimmick every day
  • Just t’ take somebody’s money away
  • I think we oughta take some o’ these people
  • And put ’em on a boat, send ’em up to Bear Mountain . . .
  • For a picnic
