(1963) Bob Dylan
Hollis Brown
He lived on the outside of town
Hollis Brown
He lived on the outside of town
With his wife and five children
And his cabin fallin' down
You looked for work and money
And you walked a rugged mile
You looked for work and money
And you walked a rugged mile
Your children are so hungry
That they don't know how to smile
Your baby's eyes look crazy
They're a-tuggin' at your sleeve
Your baby's eyes look crazy
They're a-tuggin' at your sleeve
You walk the floor and wonder why
With every breath you breathe
The rats have got your flour
Bad blood it got your mare
The rats have got your flour
Bad blood it got your mare
If there's anyone that knows
Is there anyone that cares?
You prayed to the Lord above
Oh please send you a friend
You prayed to the Lord above
Oh please send you a friend
Your empty pockets tell yuh
That you ain't a-got no friend
Your babies are crying louder
It's pounding on your brain
Your babies are crying louder now
It's pounding on your brain
Your wife's screams are stabbin' you
Like the dirty drivin' rain
Your grass it is turning black
There's no water in your well
Your grass is turning black
There's no water in your well
You spent your last lone dollar
On seven shotgun shells
Way out in the wilderness
A cold coyote calls
Way out in the wilderness
A cold coyote calls
Your eyes fix on the shotgun
That's hangin' on the wall
Your brain is a-bleedin'
And your legs can't seem to stand
Your brain is a-bleedin'
And your legs can't seem to stand
Your eyes fix on the shotgun
That you're holdin' in your hand
There's seven breezes a-blowin'
All around the cabin door
There's seven breezes a-blowin'
All around the cabin door
Seven shots ring out
Like the ocean's pounding roar
There's seven people dead
On a South Dakota farm
There's seven people dead
On a South Dakota farm
Somewhere in the distance
There's seven new people born
Nativa della Carolina del Nord, sesta di otto fratelli, fin da bambina rivela un grande talento che la porta a suonare e cantare in chiesa con le due sorelle, con il nome di "Waymon Sisters". Ma il pregiudizio razziale del profondo Sud negli anni Quaranta la condizionerà per molto tempo. Prende lezioni di piano, pagate dalla comunità di colore locale che promuove una fondazione per consentirle di proseguire gli studi musicali a New York. Nei primi anni Cinquanta lavora come pianista-cantante in vari club, ispirandosi a Billie Holiday; si orienta verso il jazz, cambia il suo nome in Nina Simone (in onore di Simone Signoret, di cui era ammiratrice) ed esegue I Loves You, Porgy, cover di un brano di George Gershwin (da Porgy and Bess). Il suo album di debutto, datato 1958, comprendeva I Loves You, Porgy e My Baby Just Cares for Me. Lavora per parecchie case discografiche mentre, a partire dal 1963, inizia a lavorare stabilmente con la Philips. È in questo periodo che registra alcune
