Oh where have you been, my blue eyed son?Where have you been, my darling young one?I've stumbled on the side of twelve misty mountainsWalked and I've crawled on six crooked highwaysStepped in the middle of seven sad forestsBeen out in front of a dozen dead oceansI've been ten thousand miles in a mouth of a graveyardIt's a hard and it's a hard and it's a hard and it's a hardAnd it's a hard rain's a gonna fallOh what did you see, my blue eyed son?What did you see, my darling young one?I saw a newborn baby with wild wolves around itI saw a highway of diamonds with nobody on itI saw a black branch with blood that kept drippin'I saw a room full of men with their hammers a bleedin'A white ladder all covered with waterI saw ten thousand talkers whose tongues were all brokenI saw guns and sharp swords in the hands of young childrenAnd it's a hard and it's a hard and it's a hard hardAnd it's a hard rain's a gonna fallAnd what did you hear, my blue eyed son?What did you hear, my darling young oneI heard the sound of thunder that roared out a warningHeard the roar of a wave that could drown the whole worldHeard one hundred drummers whose hands were a blazin'Heard ten thousand whisperin' and nobody listenin'Heard one person starve, many people laughin'Heard the song of a poet who died in the gutterHeard the sound of a clown who cried in the alleyAnd it's a hard and it's a hard and it's a hard hard hard hardAnd it's a hard rain's a gonna fallOh who you did meet, my blue eyed son?Who did you meet, my darling young one?I met a young child beside a dead ponyI met a white man who walked a black dogI met a young girl whose body was burningA young girl, she gave me a rainbowI met one man who was wounded in loveAnother man who was wounded with hatredAnd it's a hard and it's a hard and it's a hardAnd it's a hard rain's a gonna fallOh what'll you do now, my blue eyed son?What'll you do now, my darling young one?I'm goin' back out 'fore the rain starts fallin'Walk to the depths of the deepest black forestWhere people are many and their hands are all emptyWhere pellets of poison are flooding the watersWhere the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prisonWhere the executioner's face is always well hiddenWhere hunger is ugly, where souls are forgottenWhere black is the color, and none is the numberAnd I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe itAnd reflect it from the mountains so all souls can see itThen I'll stand in the ocean until I start sinkingBut I'll know my song well before I start singingAnd it's a hard it's a hard and it's a hardAnd it's a hard rain's a gonna fallAnd it's a hard and it's a hard and it's a hardAnd it's a hard rain's a gonna fallAnd it's a hard and it's a hard and it's a so hardAnd it's a hard rain's a gonna fall
