Now, I was broke as a muthafucka, my life at the end see My so called friends, they had no ends to lend me. My job at Mickie Ds was fuckin me with no grease I worked so damn hard, but the money, it never increased. I quit my fuckin job, I had no job nigga Put on the mask, get the gloc, it's time to rob nigga. I hit the streets, but no victim had been chosen Damn I was nervous, but my fear wouldn't stop my strollin. Then all of a sudden, out of nowhere, I was struck I felt the burn of bullets, so I knew I had got bucked. Reachin for my tech, the bullets hit me in my chest My eyes closed shut, and I thought I seen death. I woke up at the med still woozy from my jackin T-Money walked in and he told me what had happened. I knew him from the hood, but I did not know him well He drove a red jag, and I knew that he was bale. He said he was rollin when he seen me in distress He said he killed the muthafuckin niggas with his tech. He offered me a job said he'd front me what I needed I said that I was with it dreamin one day I would be.. Mr. Big!

I'll do the whole freakin song just for you KC. Twas in another lifetime, one of toil and blood When blackness was a virtue and the road was full of mud I came in from the wilderness a creature void of form "come in" she said "i'll give you shelter from the storm" And if I pass this way agian' you cna rest assured i'll always do my best for her on that I give my word in a world of steel eyed death, and men fighting to be warm "come in" she said "i'll give you shelter from the storm"
Not a word was spoke between us there was little risk involved everything up to that point had been resolved trying to imagine a place were it's always safe abd warm "come in" she said "i'll give you shelter from the storm" I was burned out from exhaustion bariud in the hail poisoned in the bushes and blown out on the trail hunted like a crocidile ravaged in the corn "come in" she said "i'll give you shelter from the storm" Suddenly I turned around she was standing there with silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair she walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns "come in" she said "ill give you shelter from the storm"
Now theres a wall between us something theres been lost I took to much for granted, got my signals crossed just to think that it all began on a long forgotten morn "come in" she said "i'll give you shelter from the storm"
Well the deputy walks on hard nail and a preacher rides a mount nothing really matters much its doom alone that counts and the one eyed undertaker he blows a futile horn come in she said I'll give you shelter from the storm
Ive heard newborn babys wailing like a morning dove and old men with broken teeth stranded without love do I understand your question is it hopeless and forelorn come in she said i'll give you shelter from the storm
Well im living in a foriegn country and i'm bound to cross the line beauty walks a razors edge someday i'll make it mine if I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born come in she said i'll give you shelter from the storm.

Here's a link to the words(wish I would have searched first). Listen to the first version and then listen to the "Live at Budoken "version. They have real adio for both. It's the fucking bomb. http://www.bobdylan.com/songs/shelter.html

Wow what a beautiful song. I'm can't beleive I never heard it. I love Dylan but I'm most familiar with his more early stuff. I assume this is later but I'm not sure. Great song though! I've been listening to the Blond on Blond album a lot lately. I really like that one.

He did post it. It's cool but it's only the first minute of each song. At least I got a taste though.

Go out and get Live at Budoken. Its a 2 CD album and all his dank shit is on it. He mixes it up so it sounds very different. I just noticed that that site just gives a clip. The full version is absolutaly a masterpiece. Listen to all four version on that site and you'll see how he can change it up.

Okay Dustin I don't know if thats something you pulled out your ass but the lyrics to your incredibly thought provoking rap made everyone who read it, dumber.
