ring them bells

• joan baez'in çok ba$arili bir live albümü.
• bob dylan'ın mük-kem-mel bir şarkısı, ilk oh mercy albümünde yayınlanmıştır. joan baez'in aynı isimli konser albümünde de bulunur.
  
  sözlerini de vereyim de tam olsun bari:
  
  ring them bells, ye heathen
  from the city that dreams,
  ring them bells from the sanctuaries
  cross the valleys and streams,
  for they're deep and they're wide
  and the world's on its side
  and time is running backwards
  and so is the bride.
  
  ring them bells st. peter
  where the four winds blow,
  ring them bells with an iron hand
  so the people will know.
  oh it's rush hour now
  on the wheel and the plow
  and the sun is going down
  upon the sacred cow.
  
  ring them bells sweet martha,
  for the poor man's son,
  ring them bells so the world will know
  that god is one.
  oh the shepherd is asleep
  where the willows weep
  and the mountains are filled
  with lost sheep.
  
  ring them bells for the blind and the deaf,
  ring them bells for all of us who are left,
  ring them bells for the chosen few
  who will judge the many when the game is through.
  ring them bells, for the time that flies,
  for the child that cries
  when innocence dies.
  
  ring them bells st. catherine
  from the top of the room,
  ring them from the fortress
  for the lilies that bloom.
  oh the lines are long
  and the fighting is strong
  and they're breaking down the distance
  between right and wrong.

  işte monologuyla beraber sözleri:
  
  about a year ago - i heard this truly terrific, absolutely true story
  and it just so happens that i told a couple of friends of mine this truly terrific, absolutely true story
  and it just so happens that these friends of mine are song writers
  and guess what happened, right, truly terrific, absolutely true song
  
  gather around, i've got a story to tell, about a manhattan lady that i know very well
  she lives at five riverside, her name is shirley devore, and she travelled 'round the world to meet the guy next door
  
  well there was trouble inside apartment 29 e, 'cause shirley's mother and dad were as upset as can be
  they said we hate to complain dear and we don't like to grouse, but your nearly 32, you should get out of the house
  
  you gotta ring them bells, you gotta ring them bells, you gotta make 'em sing and really ring them bells
  it's such a happy thing to hear 'em ting-a-ling, you gotta ring - them - bells
  
  well shirley was 31, which she was loathe to admit, and she had never been loved, which didn't thrill her a bit
  and so she sat and she thought, she thought for hours on end, and said i'll go to chase, manhattan, where i got me a friend
  
  and so she borrowed a thou' and called twa, and told her mother and dad that she was up and away
  i'm gonna travel the continent, a month, maybe two, and haul me home a hus' if it's the last thing i do
  
  you gotta ring them bells, you gotta ring them bells, you gotta make 'em sing and really ring them bells
  it's such a happy thing to hear 'em ting-a-ling, you gotta ring - them - bells
  
  she met a londoner first, but they did not hit it off, 'cause every time she approached he got a bronchial cough
  and so she went to madrid and met a handsome senior, but he liked to throw the bull and he was no matador
  
  she also bombed out in brussells, in mallorca and rome, **til' someone said try dubrovnik dear before you go home
  'cause it's the kind of a town where you'll be likely to fall, and all the toni cognoscenti find the balkans a ball
  
  you gotta ring them bells, you gotta ring them bells, you gotta make 'em sing and really ring them bells
  it's such a happy thing to hear 'em ting-a-ling, you gotta ring - them - bells
  
  and so she went to dubruvnik and the very first day, she met a guy on the beach who took her reason away
  yes it was love at first sight and quite a beautiful scene, she said my name is shirl devore, he said i'm norm saperstein
  she said are you from new york, he said that can't be denied, i've got a swell junior three at number five riverside
  five? five riverside drive in new york, that's where you live? that's-that's where i live, five? are you sure?
  as if that wasn't enough, for shirley thought she'd gone deaf, when he told her his apartment there was 29 f
  
  yes, she was 'e', he was 'f', and they had not even met, until she travelled the world to yugoslavia yet
  he'd always been right next door and she would never have known, if she hadn't tried dubrovnik, she might still be alone
  
  well - there's - a - moral to learn from little shirley devore, who had to borrow a thou' to find a lover next door
  you girls who live in apartments, don't just stare at the wall, open up the door and hurry out in the hall
  
  and... - oh ring them bells, come on, come on, ring them bells
  make 'em sing, you'd better ring them bells
  it's such a happy thing to hear 'em ting-a-ling
  you gotta swing them, ring them, swing them, ring them be-ells...
• heart grubuyla layne staley'in düet yaptığı çok başarılı bir cover'ı vardır.
  parça grubun^* 1993 çıkışlı desire walks on adlı albümünden yer alır.
  
  parçayı dinler ve "şu yalan dünyadan layne staley gibi bir insan geldi geçti" dersiniz.
  
  yaşasaydı daha ne işlere imza atacaktı bilinmez ama geride bıraktığı eserlerinin de hepsi ayrı ayrı güzeldir.
  
  üşüyoruz layne reyiz.
  
  edit: albüm ismi.
