Thank you to Bob Dylan and his band, Tony Garnier, Donnie Herron, Bob Britt, Doug Lancio, and Jerry Pentecost. (nightly moth recording).

This reminds me... I really recommend this latest episode by Definitely Dylan, "Someday everything's gonna be beautiful": The Resurrection of "When I Paint My Masterpiece" https://www.definitelydylan.com/liste...

Oh the streets of Rome... oh they're filled with rubble
Ancient footprints are everywhere
You can always... find some way to get yourself into trouble
On a cold dark night by the Spanish Stairs
Got to hurry on back to my hotel room
Gonna wash my clothes, scrape off all the grease
Lock the doors turn my back on the world for a while
Stay right there... 'til I paint my masterpiece

Well the hours I’ve spent... inside the Coliseum
Dodging lions.. with that mean and a hungry look
Those mighty kings of the jungle, I could hardly stand to see ’em
I could see them coming I could
read their faces just like a book
Train wheels runnin’ through the back of my memory
When I ran on the hilltop following a pack of wild geese
Someday, everything gonna be so doggone beautiful
When? When I... paint my masterpiece

Sailin’ around the world.. full of crimson and clover
Sometimes I think my .. cup is running over
I left Rome .. pulled into Brussels
On a plane ride so bumpy that it made me ill
Clergy men in uniform and young girls pulling muscles
Everyone was there to meet me coming down the hill
Newspaper men eating candy... had to be held back by big police
Someday ... everything gonna different
When I paint my masterpiece
(Thank you art lovers)
