    Lyrics:
    [Verse 1]
    Bad news, bad news
    Come to me where I sleep
    Turn, turn, turn again
    Sayin’ one of your friends
    Is in trouble deep
    Turn, turn to the rain
    And the wind
    Tell me the trouble
    Tell once to my ear
    Turn, turn, turn again
    Joliet prison
    And ninety-nine years
    Turn, turn to the rain
    And the wind
    [Verse 2]
    Oh what’s the charge
    Of how this came to be
    Turn, turn, turn again
    Manslaughter
    In the highest of degrees
    Turn, turn to the rain
    And the wind
    I sat down and wrote
    The best words I could write
    Turn, turn, turn again
    Explaining to the judge
    I’d be there on Wednesday night
    Turn, turn to the rain
    And the wind
    [Verse 3]
    Without a reply
    I left by the moon
    Turn, turn, turn again
    And was in his chambers
    By the next afternoon
    Turn, turn to the rain
    And the wind
    Could ya tell me the facts?
    I said without fear
    Turn, turn, turn again
    That a friend of mine
    Would get ninety-nine years
    Turn, turn to the rain
    And the wind
    [Verse 4]
    A crash on the highway
    Flew the car to a field
    Turn, turn, turn again
    There was four persons killed
    And he was at the wheel
    Turn, turn to the rain
    And the wind
    But I knew him as good
    As I’m knowing myself
    Turn, turn, turn again
    And he wouldn’t harm a life
    That belonged to someone else
    Turn, turn to the rain
    And the wind
    [Verse 5]
    The judge spoke
    Out of the side of his mouth
    Turn, turn, turn again
    Sayin’, “The witness who saw
    He left little doubt”
    Turn, turn to the rain
    And the wind
    That may be true
    He’s got a sentence to serve
    Turn, turn, turn again
    But ninety-nine years
    He just don’t deserve
    Turn, turn to the rain
    And the wind
    [Verse 6]
    Too late, too late
    For his case it is sealed
    Turn, turn, turn again
    His sentence is passed
    And it cannot be repealed
    Turn, turn to the rain
    And the wind
    But he ain’t no criminal
    And his crime it is none
    Turn, turn, turn again
    What happened to him
    Could happen to anyone
    Turn, turn to the rain
    And the wind
    [Verse 7]
    And at that the judge jerked forward
    And his face it did freeze
    Turn, turn, turn again
    Sayin’, “Could you kindly leave
    My office now, please”
    Turn, turn to the rain
    And the wind
    Well his eyes looked funny
    And I stood up so slow
    Turn, turn, turn again
    With no other choice
    Except for to go
    Turn, turn to the rain
    And the wind
    [Verse 8]
    I walked down the hallway
    And I heard his door slam
    Turn, turn, turn again
    I walked down the courthouse stairs
    And I did not understand
    Turn, turn to the rain
    And the wind
    And I played my guitar
    Through the night to the day
    Turn, turn, turn again
    And the only tune
    My guitar could play
    Was, “Oh the Cruel Rain
    And the Wind”

    Dear Bob,
    I felt I had to write a reply to this song. I first heard your music as a young boy, (my father played Freewheelin’ ,Masters Of War in particular) I remember as if yesterday, both he and I brought to tears as he explained the wider context of this song. My first real glimpse into the evil of this world. A great sadness enveloped my heart, but also a desire arose in me to fight injustice and stand for what was right even if I was in the minority of one. Perhaps best expressed by A Hard Rains A Gonna Fall.
    In my twenties Blood On The Tracks & Desire came to the fore, as the love of my life left me, and you sang about the things that I just couldn’t put into words.
    Today 40 years on, as I write this, I am again in tears listening to Percy’s song. I can’t help listening to these words as seen through the lense of current events.
    I always hoped I might bump into you in an airport lounge or some place, to simply say thank you, thank you for this strange kind of companionship throughout my journey. Its an odd sort of relationship to know someones words but not the fellow in person, to have a place firmly in your heart for a man you will never meet. Communication over thousands of miles and yet written and received in a ‘place’ where time and space are only concepts percieved.
    With kind regards, I wish you all the best for the future, and thanks again my friend, its been an honour
    Simon

      Lovely. And so true. I'm a younger guy. 37 years young. And I feel exactly the same. It's strange how something so ubiquitous can be so personal and transcend time and generations. Musician/songwriter and even artist do not do this man justice. Hopefully in 30 years when I'm younger still, I'll have many new and different perspectives to appreciate and life experiences that Bob can help with in a way only he can....

      Just written wonderfully!!! It was around 1980 (when I was about 10), when I heard Bob Dylan the first time on the radio (it was the A-side of the live album "HARD RAIN") in the former GDR and it touched me deeply!! I've been a fan ever since... At his 80th birthday I finally released my own personal homage to Bob Dylan (you can see on youtube) - a song with 35 Songtitles by Bob Dylan, worked into one Song: “Covenant precious sweet Marie” - A tribute on his 80th birthday... if you wanna hear it (and leave a comment:-) - I would be pleased...

Then a song like this tells me to shut up and enjoy what you enjoy and dont try to sell it to anyone or hate on them for liking music that makes your bones hurt. Just stay in your lane and enjoy. Ive been listening to dylan for 20 years and never heard this. What a treat to feel like the first time i heard his music again and soak it in

      Side Tracks is also a great album to have. It collects all the rare tracks and non album singles from Biograph, aswell as Tomorrow is a Long time, Down in the Flood, I Shall be Released and You 'Aint going nowhere from Greatest Hits Vol 2. It also contains Series of Dreams, Dignity and Things Have Changed. My only complaint with it, is i don't understand why they didn't put Rita May on there. A little gem from the Desire sessions, that was also the b-side to the live version of Stuck inside of mobile from the Hard Rain album. I used to have it on a cd called Masterpieces, which was a Japanese release, and it's quite rare. But i think you may still be able to get it on Amazon. I lost my copy. Still i would recommend Side Tracks to any Dylan fan who doesn't already have it. It's a great album or cd, which just rounds up most of his rare tracks and non album singles. It has a great tracklist. I just wish they had of put Rita May on it. It also has Watching the River Flow and When I Paint my Masterpiece from Greatest Hits Vol 2.

    Whispered to him

    Flat again
    From the past
    Up to the present
    Tense
    Left alone with only his art to give it occurred
    Again to him
    Driven by the rain
    and the wind
    and Back again
    The circle turns around
    In the rain and the wind
    Turn turn again
    Forgotten for the first time so I don t remember when
    my friend
    But Then Remembering The beginning was
    The end for him
    Turn Turn turn it
    All over again
    To the rain and the wind
    Left for said destination and
    Never heard from again
    Just his turn I guess
    Gonna hafta blame
    This one too
    on the rain and the wind again good ole freinds
    The great circle unbroken
    Everything equal
    All the good and all the sin
    So never you mind

    it's all the same in the end So let's just settle in

    Just in from visiting Deirdre n VnH. And dodging feckin mad ppl. Lovely ❤️ lovely 💕 song. On seafront in Newcastle is a memorial to Percy French who wrote about the mountains of Mourne sweeping down to the sea. And they sure do there in Newcastle. Fancy Slieve Donard hotel where Van usually does a gig once a year for rich diners, which obviously I could never afford to go to, as I don’t mind paying for music but dinner and music outside my budget usually. Anyway, knowing my luck even if I could afford to go I would’ve got landed at a table with assholes who would ruin my night and talk thru all the music.

    I first heard this on late night radio in the winter of 1968 while living in Syracuse, ny. It wasn't released yet but the station had it somehow. Liked the guitar picking, harmonica, and clear voice of Dylan from the 1963 take. Glad to later find it on Biograph

    One of the saddest and most stirring songs about the tragidy and challanges of life in todays world.
    As we fight the turmoil and repression of today's society, we must always be aware, what hardship and repression can be cast on some good and innocent people.
    So, keep on fighting ‼- ...🎵 ....turn turn to the wind and the rain!🎵

    I bought the biograph CD set close to 20 years ago now... I can't remember when. Lent it to my brother, who's father-in-law then borrowed it for a long while. I finally got back some years back....But I still haven't listened to it. It now feels like an undiscovered relic to me....the best things come to those who wait, and I can't wait to listen to it.

    Bad news, bad news came to me where I sleep
    Turn, turn, turn again
    Sayin' one of your friends is in trouble deep
    Turn, turn to the rain and the wind
    Tell me the trouble, tell me once to my ear
    Turn, turn, turn again
    Joliet prison and ninety-nine years
    Turn, turn to the rain and the wind
    Oh what's the charge of how this came to be?
    Turn, turn, turn again
    Manslaughter in the highest of degrees
    Turn, turn to the rain and the wind
    I sat down and wrote the best words I could write
    Turn, turn, turn again
    Explaining to the judge I'd be there on Wednesday night
    Turn, turn to the rain and the wind
    Without a reply I left by the moon
    Turn, turn, turn again
    And was in his chambers by the next afternoon
    Turn, turn to the rain and the wind
    🎵🎶🎵🎶
    Could you tell me the facts, I said without fear
    Turn, turn, turn again
    That a friend of mine would get ninety-nine years
    Turn, turn to the rain and the wind
    A crash on the highway flew the car to a field
    Turn, turn, turn again
    There was four persons killed and he was at the wheel
    Turn, turn to the rain and the wind
    But I know him as good as I'm knowin' myself
    Turn, turn, turn again
    And he wouldn't harm a life that belongs to someone else
    Turn, turn to the rain and the wind
    The judge he spoke out of the side of his mouth
    Turn, turn, turn again
    Sayin', "The witness who saw he left no doubt"
    Turn, turn to the rain and the wind
    That may be true, he's got a sentence to serve
    Turn, turn, turn again
    But ninety-nine years, he just don't deserve
    Turn, turn to the rain and the wind
    Too late, too late for his case it is sealed
    Turn, turn, turn again
    His sentenced is passed and it cannot be repealed
    Turn, turn to the rain and the wind
    But he ain't no criminal and his crime it is none
    Turn, turn, turn again
    What happened to him could happen to anyone
    Turn, turn to the rain and the wind
    🎵🎶🎵🎶
    And at that the judge jerked forward and his face it did freeze
    Turn, turn, turn again
    Sayin', "Could you kindly leave my office now, please"
    Turn, turn to the rain and the wind
    The room was funny and I stood up so slow
    Turn, turn, turn again
    With no other choice except for to go
    Turn, turn to the rain and the wind
    I walked down the hallway and I heard his door slam
    Turn, turn, turn again
    I walked down the courthouse stairs and I did not understand
    Turn, turn to the rain and the wind
    🎵🎶🎵🎶
    And I played my guitar through the night to the day
    Turn, turn, turn again
    And the only tune my guitar could play
    Was, "Oh the cruel rain and the wind"

    This song is about a friend of Bob Dylan's who crashed his car into a field, killing four people, either due to the wind and the rain, or some other circumstance such as drunk driving. Yet all the comments I hear about how great Bob Dylan is. Dylan wrote this about someone else, not himself. It was a song about injustice in the criminal system. Does anyone think about Percy, and whether he's still serving his 99-year sentence?

    • @TheRealForrestGeorge
      @TheRealForrestGeorge 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Dylan wrote the song from the point of view of a narrating character. The song relates the story of a fatal car crash and a subsequent manslaughter conviction and 99-year sentence in Joliet Prison that is handed down to the driver (a friend of the first-person narrator). The narrator goes to ask the sentencing judge to commute his friend's sentence which he considers too harsh, but the sentence stands. The story of the hard-hearted judge is reminiscent of the Child ballad "Geordie". en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percy%27s_Song
