作词：Bob Dylan

作曲：Bob Dylan

Everything went from bad to worse

Money never changed a thing

Death kept following tracking us down

At least I heard your bluebird sing

Now somebody's got to show their hand

Time is an enemy

I know you're long gone

I guess it must be up to me

If I'd thought about it

I never would've done it I guess

I would've let it slide

If I'd payed a tension to others a thinking

The heart

Inside me would've died

I was just too stubborn to ever be

Governed by enforced insanity

Someone had to reach for the rising star

I guess it was up to me

The union central is pulling out

And the orchids are in bloom

I've only got me one good shirt

Left and it smells of stale perfume

In fourteen months

I've only smiled once and I didn't do

It consciously

Somebody's got to find your trail

I guess it must be up to me

It was like a revelation when

You betrayed me with your touch

I'd just about convinced myself

That nothing had changed that much

The old rounder in the iron mask

Slipped me the master key

Somebody had to unlock your heart

He said it was up to me

Well I watched you slowly disappear

Down into the officers' club

I would've followed you in the door but

I didn't have a ticket stub

So I waited all night 'til

The break of day hoping one of us

Could get free

When the dawn came over the river bridge

I knew it was up to me

The only decent thing I did when

I worked as a postal clerk

Was to haul your picture down off

The wall near the cage where I used to work

Was I a fool or not to try to protect

Your identity

You looked a little burned out my friend

I thought it might be up to me

Well I met somebody face to face and

I had to remove my hat

She's everything I need and love but

I can't be swayed by that

It frightens me the awful truth of how sweet

Life can be

But she ain't a going to make me move

I guess it must be up to me

We heard the sermon on the mount

And I knew it

Was too complex

It didn't amount to anything

More than what the broken glass reflects

When you bite off more than

You can chew you pay the penalty

Somebody's got to tell the tale

I guess it must be up to me

Well dupree came in pimpin' tonight to the

Thunderbird cafe

Crystal wanted to talk to him

I had to look the other way

Well I just can't rest without you

Love I need your company

But you ain't a going to 'cross the line

I guess it must be up to me

There's a note left in the bottle

You can give it to estelle

She's the one you been wondering about

But there's really nothing much to tell

We both heard voices for a while

Now the rest is history

Somebody's got to cry some tears

I guess it must be up to me

So go on boys and play your hands

Life is a pantomime

The ringleaders from the county seat

Say you don't have all that much time

And the girl with me behind the shades

She ain't my property

One of us has got to hit the road

I guess it must be up to me

And if we never meet again baby

Remember me

How my lone guitar played sweet

For you that old time melody

And the harmonica around my neck

I blew it for you free

No one else could play that tune

You know it was up to me
