When You Gonna Wake Up? (Live July 9, 1981)歌词

作词 : Bob Dylan
作曲 : Bob Dylan
God don't make promises that he don't keep
You got some big dreams baby, but in order to dream you gotta still be asleep.
When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up?
When you gonna wake up strengthen the things that remain ?
Counterfeited philosophies have polluted all of your thoughts.
Karl Marx has got ya by the throat, Henry Kissinger's got you tied up in knots.
When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up?
When you gonna wake up strengthen the things that remain ?
Spiritual advisors and gurus to make you hold your breath.
Give you instant inner peace but every step you take leave right now to then.
When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up
When you gonna wake up strengthen the things that remain ?
You can't take it with you and you know that it's too worthless to be sold
They tell you, 'Time is money' as if your life was worth its weight in gold.
When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up
When you gonna wake up strengthen the things that remain ?
Do you ever wonder just what God requires?
You think He's just an errand boy to satisfy your wandering desires.
When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up
When you gonna wake up strengthen the things that remain ?
There's a man up on a cross and He's been crucified.
You know who he is and you know why he died.
When you gonna wake up, when you gonna wake up
When you gonna wake up strengthen the things that remain ?
