The Times They Are A Changing...

¡Y seguimos con las Covers! Hoy la versión la hace "Mason Jennings" de una canción de Bob Dylan. Y es que pocos artistas pueden presumir de ser uno de los músicos más versionados de la historia y Dylan sin duda es el numero uno. Sus canciones las versionan artistas de todos los estilos: Tracy Chapman, Cat Power, Calexico, Willie Nelson, Joan Baez, The Byrds, The Rolling Stones, y un larguísimo etc. . Y es que Boby ha sido uno de los artistas más influyentes de la historia y es normal que todo músico haya dicho alguna vez "¡Vaya! Me encantaría hacer una versión de este tema de Dylan..."

Feliz Fin De Semana ;-) !

Lyrics - Bob Dylan
Come gather round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
Youll be drenched to the bone.
If your time to you
Is worth savin
Then you better start swimmin
Or youll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin.

Come writers and critics
Who prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance wont come again
And dont speak too soon
For the wheels still in spin
And theres no tellin who
That its namin.
For the loser now
Will be later to win
For the times they are a-changin.

Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Dont stand in the doorway
Dont block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
Theres a battle outside
And it is ragin.
Itll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin.

Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And dont criticize
What you cant understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is
Rapidly agin.
Please get out of the new one
If you cant lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin.

The line it is drawn
The curse it is cast
The slow one now
Will later be fast
As the present now
Will later be past
The order is
Rapidly fadin.
And the first one now
Will later be last
For the times they are a-changin.
