When I Paint My Masterpiece - Bob Dylan
Oh the streets of Rome are filled with rubble
Ancient footprints are everywhere
You can almost think
That you're seein' double
On a cold dark night on the Spanish Stairs
Got to hurry on back to my hotel room
Where I've got me a date with Botticelli's niece
She promised that she'd be right there with me
When I paint my masterpiece
Oh the hours I've spent inside the Coliseum
Dodging lions and wastin' time
Oh those mighty kings of the jungle
I could hardly stand to see 'em
Yes it sure has been a long hard climb
Train wheels runnin' through
The back of my memory
When I ran on the hilltop
Following a pack of wild geese
Someday everything is gonna be smooth
Like a rhapsody
When I paint my masterpiece
Sailin' 'round the world in a dirty gondola
Oh to be back in the land of Coca-Cola
I left Rome and landed in Brussels
Where they picture of tall up tree by my side
Clergymen in uniform
And young girls pullin' muscles
Everyone was there to greet me
When I stepped inside
Newspapermen eating candy
Had to be held down by big police
Someday everything is gonna be different
When I paint my masterpiece
