People who are sad – sometimes they wear a frown
And people who are kings – sometimes they wear a crown
But all the people who don’t fit
Get the only fun they get
From people puttin’ people down
People puttin’ people down
Original song by John Prine:
Bob Dylan has covered this song twice… The other time was @ Palace Theatre, Sao Paolo, Brazil – 17 August 1991.
–
People without love – sometimes build a fence around
The garden up above – that makes the whole world go ’round
But all the people who don’t fit
Get the only fun they get
From people puttin’ people down
People puttin’ people downSo cold, sometimes it gets so cold
Roma Palaeur
Rome, Italy
6 June 1991
- Bob Dylan (vocal & guitar)
- John Jackson (guitar)
- Tony Garnier (bass)
- Ian Wallace (drums)
You may love your wife – you may lose your family
You may lose you mind – just to keep your sanity
But the people who don’t fit
Get the only fun they get
From people puttin’ people down
People puttin’ people downPeople that are glad – sometimes they wear a smile
And people without dreams they walk the extra mile
But all the people who don’t fit
Get the only fun they get
From people puttin’ people down
People puttin’ people dwn
From people puttin’ people down
People puttin’ people downSo cold, sometimes it gets so cold
