Lily, Rosemary And The Jack Of Hearts Lyrics – Bob Dylan
Singer: Bob Dylan
Title: Lily, Rosemary And The Jack Of Hearts
The festival was over and the boys were all planning for a fall
The cabaret was quiet except for the drilling in the wall
The curfew had been lifted and the gambling wheel shut down
Anyone with any sense had already left town
He was standing in the doorway looking like the Jack of Hearts.
He moved across the mirrored room “Set it up for everyone” he said
Then everyone commenced to do what they were doin’ before he turned their heads
Then he walked up to a stranger and he asked him with a grin
“Could you kindly tell me friend what time the show begins ?”
Then he moved into the corner face down like the Jack of Hearts.
Backstage the girls were playing five card stud by the stairs
Lily had two queens she was hoping for a third to match her pair
Outside the streets were filling up, the window was open wide
A gentle breeze was blowing, you could feel it from inside
Lily called another bet and drew up the Jack of Hearts.
Big Jim was no one’s fool, he owned the town’s only diamond mine
He made his usual entrance looking so dandy and so fine
With his bodyguards and silver cane and every hair in place
He took whatever he wanted to and he laid it all to waste
But his bodyguards and silver cane were no match for the Jack of Hearts.
Rosemary combed her hair and took a carriage into town
She slipped in through the side door looking like a queen without a crown
She fluttered her false eyelashes and whispered in his ear
“Sorry darling, that I’m late”, but he didn’t seem to hear
He was staring into space over at the Jack of Hearts.
“I know I’ve seen that face somewhere” Big Jim was thinking to himself
“Maybe down in Mexico or a picture up on somebody’s shelf”
But then the crowd began to stamp their feet and the house lights did dim
And in the darkness of the room there was only Jim and him
Staring at the butterfly who just drew the Jack of Hearts.
Lily was a princess she was fair-skinned and precious as a child
She did whatever she had to do she had that certain flash every time she smiled
She’d come away from a broken home had lots of strange affairs
With men in every walk of life which took her everywhere
But she’d never met anyone quite like the Jack of Hearts.
The hanging judge came in unnoticed and was being wined and dined
The drilling in the wall kept up but no one seemed to pay it any mind
It was known all around that Lily had Jim’s ring
And nothing would ever come between Lily and the king
No nothing ever would except maybe the Jack of Hearts.
Rosemary started drinking hard and seeing her reflection in the knife
She was tired of the attention tired of playing the role of Big Jim’s wife
She had done a lot of bad things even once tried suicide
Was looking to do just one good deed before she died
She was gazing to the future riding on the Jack of Hearts.
Lily took her dress off and buried it away
“Has your luck run out?” she laughed at him.
“Well I guess you must have known it would someday
Be careful not to touch the wall there’s a brand new coat of paint
I’m glad to see you’re still alive you’re looking like a saint”
Down the hallway footsteps were coming for the Jack of Hearts.
The backstage manager was pacing all around by his chair
“There’s something funny going on” he said ” I can just feel it in the air”
He went to get the hanging judge but the hanging judge was drunk
As the leading actor hurried by in the costume of a monk
There was no actor anywhere better than the Jack of Hearts.
No one knew the circumstance, but they say it happened pretty quick
The door to the dressing room burst open a Colt revolver clicked
And big Jim was standing there you couldn’t say surprised
Rosemary right beside him studying her eyes
She was with big Jim but she was leaning to the Jack of Hearts.
Two doors down the boys finally made it through the wall
And cleaned out the bank safe it’s said that they got off with quite a haul
In the darkness by the riverbed they waited on the ground
For one more member who had business back in town
But they couldn’t go no further without the Jack of Hearts.
The next day was hanging day the sky was overcast and black
Big Jim lay covered up killed by a penknife in the back
And Rosemary on the gallows she didn’t even blink
The hanging judge was sober he hadn’t had a drink
The only person on the scene missing was the Jack of Hearts.
The cabaret was empty now a sign said. “Closed for repair”
Lily had already taken all of the dye out of her hair
She was thinking about her father who she very rarely saw
Thinking about Rosemary and thinking about the law
But most of all she was thinking about the Jack of Hearts.

Lily, Rosemary And The Jack Of Hearts – Terjemahan / Translation
Festival sudah berakhir dan anak-anak semua merencanakan untuk jatuh
Cabaret itu tenang kecuali untuk pengeboran di dinding
Jam malam itu telah diangkat dan roda judi ditutup
Siapa pun yang masuk akal telah meninggalkan kota
Dia berdiri di ambang pintu tampak seperti Jack of Hearts.
Dia bergerak melintasi ruang cermin “atur untuk semua orang” katanya
Kemudian semua orang mulai melakukan apa yang mereka lakukan sebelum dia memutar kepala mereka
Kemudian dia berjalan ke orang asing dan dia bertanya padanya dengan senyum
“Bisakah kamu memberi tahu aku teman jam berapa pertunjukan dimulai?”
Kemudian dia pindah ke sudut menghadap ke bawah seperti Jack of Hearts.
Di belakang panggung gadis-gadis itu bermain lima kartu pejantan di tangga
Lily punya dua ratu dia berharap untuk yang ketiga untuk mencocokkan pasangannya
Di luar jalan-jalan diisi, jendelanya terbuka lebar
Angin sepoi-sepoi bertiup, Anda bisa merasakannya dari dalam
Lily memanggil taruhan lain dan menggambar Jack of Hearts.
Jim besar bukanlah orang bodoh, dia memiliki satu-satunya tambang berlian kota
Dia membuat pintu masuknya yang biasa terlihat sangat keren dan sangat baik
Dengan pengawalnya dan tebu perak dan setiap rambut di tempat
Dia mengambil apa pun yang dia inginkan dan dia meletakkan semuanya untuk disia-siakan
Tetapi pengawalnya dan tebu perak tidak cocok untuk Jack of Hearts.
Rosemary menyisir rambutnya dan mengambil kereta ke kota
Dia tergelincir melalui pintu samping tampak seperti seorang ratu tanpa mahkota
Dia berkibar bulu mata palsu dan berbisik di telinganya
“Maaf sayang, bahwa aku terlambat”, tetapi dia sepertinya tidak mendengar
Dia menatap ke luar angkasa di Jack of Hearts.
“Aku tahu aku telah melihat wajah itu di suatu tempat” Big Jim sedang berpikir untuk dirinya sendiri
“Mungkin turun di Meksiko atau gambar di atas rak seseorang”
Tetapi kemudian kerumunan mulai mencap kaki mereka dan lampu rumah meredup
Dan dalam kegelapan ruangan hanya ada Jim dan dia
Menatap kupu-kupu yang baru saja menggambar Jack of Hearts.
Lily adalah seorang putri dia berkulit putih dan berharga sebagai anak
Dia melakukan apa pun yang harus dia lakukan, dia memiliki flash tertentu setiap kali dia tersenyum
Dia datang dari rumah yang rusak memiliki banyak urusan aneh
Dengan pria di setiap jalan hidup yang membawanya ke mana-mana
Tapi dia belum pernah bertemu orang seperti Jack of Hearts.
Hakim gantung datang tanpa disadari dan dimenangkan dan dimakan
Pengeboran di dinding terus tetapi tidak ada yang melihatnya
Diketahui di sekitar lily memiliki cincin Jim
Dan tidak ada yang akan datang antara Lily dan Raja
Tidak ada yang akan kecuali mungkin Jack of Hearts.
Rosemary mulai minum keras dan melihat bayangannya di pisau
Dia bosan dengan perhatian lelah bermain peran istri besar Jim
Dia telah melakukan banyak hal buruk bahkan sekali mencoba bunuh diri
Sedang mencari hanya satu perbuatan baik sebelum dia meninggal
Dia menatap masa depan mengendarai Jack of Hearts.
Lily mengambil pakaiannya dan menguburnya
“Apakah keberuntunganmu habis?” Dia menertawakannya.
“Yah, kurasa kamu pasti tahu itu suatu hari nanti
Berhati-hatilah untuk tidak menyentuh dinding ada lapisan cat baru
Saya senang melihat Anda masih hidup Anda terlihat seperti orang suci ”
Lorong-langkah lorong datang untuk Jack of Hearts.
Manajer Backstage mondar-mandir di sekitarnya dengan kursinya
“Ada sesuatu yang lucu terjadi,” katanya, “aku bisa merasakannya di udara”
Dia pergi untuk mendapatkan hakim menggantung tetapi hakim gantung itu mabuk
Sebagai aktor terkemuka bergegas dengan mengenakan kostum seorang bhikkhu
Tidak ada aktor di mana pun lebih baik daripada Jack of Hearts.
Tidak ada yang tahu situasinya, tetapi mereka mengatakan itu terjadi cukup cepat
Pintu ke ruang ganti meledak membuka revolver colt diklik
Dan Jim besar berdiri di sana Anda tidak bisa mengatakan terkejut
Rosemary tepat di sampingnya mempelajari matanya
Dia dengan Jim Besar tapi dia condong ke Jack of Hearts.
Dua pintu menyusuri anak laki-laki akhirnya berhasil melewati dinding
Dan membersihkan bank aman dikatakan bahwa mereka turun dengan cukup banyak
Dalam kegelapan di tepi sungai mereka menunggu di tanah
Untuk satu anggota lagi yang memiliki bisnis kembali di kota
Tetapi mereka tidak bisa melangkah lebih jauh tanpa Jack of Hearts.
Hari berikutnya adalah menggantung hari langit mendung dan hitam
Big Jim berbaring ditutupi dibunuh oleh pisau lipat di belakang
Dan rosemary di tiang gantungan dia bahkan tidak berkedip
Hakim gantung itu sadar dia tidak minum
Satu-satunya orang di tempat yang hilang adalah Jack of Hearts.
Cabaret itu kosong sekarang tanda kata. “TUTUP UNTUK PERBAIKAN”
Lily sudah mengambil semua pewarna dari rambutnya
Dia sedang memikirkan ayahnya yang sangat jarang dia lihat
Berpikir tentang rosemary dan memikirkan hukum
Tetapi kebanyakan dari semua yang dia pikirkan tentang Jack of Hearts.
