Bob Dylan If Dogs Run Free Lyrics

If Dogs Run Free Lyrics

If dogs run free, then why not we 
Across the swooping plain ?
My ears hear a symphony 
Of two mules, trains and rain
The best is always yet to come 
That's what they explain to me
Just do your thing, you'll be king 
If dogs run free.

If dogs run free, why not me
Across the swamp of time ?
My mind weaves a symphony 
And tapestry of rhyme
Oh, winds which rush my tale to thee 
So it may flow and be
To each his own, it's all unknown 
If dogs run free.

If dogs run free, then what must be 
Must be and that is all
True love can make a blade of grass
Stand up straight and tall 
In harmony with the cosmic sea 
True love needs no company
It can cure the soul, it can make it whole
If dogs run free.
