Píseň: Oxford Town

Interpret:
Bob Dylan
Album:
The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan
Oxford Town, Oxford Town
Ev'rybody's got their hats bowed down
The sun don't shine above the ground
Ain't a-goin' down to Oxford Town.


He went down to Oxford Town
Guns and clubs followed him down
All because his face was brown
Better get away from Oxford Town.


Oxford Town around the bend
He comes to the door, he couln't get in
All because of the color of his skin
What do you think about that, my frien' ?


Me and my gal, my gal's son
We got met with a tear gas bomb
I don't even know why we come
Goin' back where we come from.


Oxford Town in the afternoon
Ev'rybody singin' a sorrowful tune
Two men died 'neath the Mississippi moon
Somebody better investigate soon.
