Mr. Tambourine Man Songtext
von The Charlie Daniels Band

Hey, Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
I′m not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
In the jingle-jangle morning I′ll come following you

Though I know that evening's empire has returned into sand
And it's vanished from my hand
Left me blindly here to stand but I′m not sleeping
My weariness amazes me and I′m branded on my feet
And I have no one to meet
And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming

Hey, Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
I′m not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
In the jingle-jangle morning I′ll come following you


Take me on a trip upon your magic swirling ship
My senses have been stripped
Waitin' only for my boot heels to be wandering
I′m ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade
Into my own parade
Cast your dancing spell my way, I promise to go under it

Hey, Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I′m going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
In the jingle-jangle morning I′ll come following you

Though you might hear laughing, spinning, swinging madly across the sun
It's not aimed at anyone
It′s just escaping on the run
And but for the sky there are no fences facing

And if you hear vague traces of skipping reels of rhyme
To your tambourine in time
It's just a ragged clown behind
And you know it′s just a shadow that he's chasing

Hey, Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
I′m not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine man, play a song for me
In the jingle-jangle morning I'll come following you
In the jingle-jangle morning I′ll come following you
