Waitin on a friend
supposd to be replyin to me
never does
or not for ages
what to do?
what to do?
listen to The Basement Tapes
Side 3
Tiny Mongomery says hello
and Reuben Remus ain't no doctor
that all helps it makes sense
in the meantime
- oh, you mean life?
play it like a fine tune
only, let the fatigue go
from time to time
see what's happenin
down at the cafe
old friends comin back 'round again
haven't seen some of them
for forty years or more
now they're reappearin in my life
and I'm all the better for that
in the meantime while waitin
for that old friend
who takes so long
to do what I want him to do
as if he should have a life for himself
and so time is spun
and webs are run
and day is done
and all was fun
as the settin sun
said goodbye to everyone
