Bob Dylan - Текст песни Black Diamond Bay

She wears a necktie and a Panama hat

Her passport shows another face

From another time and place

She looks nothing like that

And all the remnants of her recent past

Are scattered in the wild wind

She walks across the marble floor

Where a voice from the gambling room is calling her to come on in

She smiles, walks the other way

As the last ship sails and the moon fades away

From Black Diamond Bay.

As the morning light breaks open the Greek comes down

And he asks for a rope and a pen that will write

"Pardon monsieur" the desk clerk says

Carefully removes his fez

"Am I hearing you right ?"

And as the yellow fog is lifting

The Greek is quickly heading for the second floor

She passes him on the spiral staircase

Thinking he's the Sovjet Ambassador

She starts to speak, but he walks away

As the storm clouds rise and the palm branches away

On Black Diamond Bay.

A soldier sits beneath the fan

Doing business with a tiny man who sells him a ring

Lightning strikes, the light blow out

The desk clerk wakes and begins to shout

"Can you see anything ?"

Then the Greek appears on the second floor

In his bare feet with a rope around his neck

While a loser in the gambling room lights up a candle

Says "Open up another deck"

But the dealer say "Attendez-vous, s'il vous pl it"

As the rain beats down and the cranes fly away

From Black Diamond Bay.

The desk clerk heard the woman laugh

As he looked around the aftermath and the soldier got tough

He tried to grab the woman's hand

Said, "Here's a ring it cost a grand"

She said, "That ain't enough"

Then she ran upstairs to pack her bags

While a horse-drawn taxi waited at the curb

She passed the door that the Greek had locked

Where a handwritten sign read, "Do not disturb"

She knocked on it anyway

As the sun went down and the music did play

On Black Diamond Bay.

"I've got to talk to someone quick !"

But the Greek said, "Go away" and he kicked the chair to the floor

He hung there from the chandelier

She cried, "Help there's danger near

Please open op the door"

Then the volcano erupted

And the lava flowed down from the mountain high above

The soldier and the tiny man were crouched in the corner

Thinking of forbidden love

But the desk clerk said "It happens every day"

As the stars fell down and the fields burned away

On Black Diamond Bay.

As the island slowly sank

The loser finally broke the bank in the gambling room

The dealer said "It's too late now

You can take you money, but I don't know how

You'll spend it in the tomb"

The tiny man bit the soldier's ear

As the floor caved in and the boiler in the basemen blew

While she's out on the balcony where a stranger tell her

"My darling je vous aime beacoup"

She sheds a tear and then begins to pray

As the fire burns on and the smoke drifts away

From Black Diamond Bay.

I was siting home alone one night in LA

Watching old Cronkite on the seven o'clock news

It seems there was an earthquake that

Left nothing but a Panama hat

And a pair of old Greek shoes

Didn't seem like much was happening

So I turned it off and went to grab another beer

Seems like every time you turn around

There's another hard-luck story that you're gonna hear

And there's really nothing anyone can say

And I never did plan to go anyway

To Black Diamond Bay.

Bob Dylan Black Diamond Bay
