When I Paint My Masterpiece (Dylan 30th Anniversary)

[Verse] Oh, the streets of Rome are filled with rubble Ancient footprints are everywhere You can almost think that you're seeing 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 a pretty little girl, Bernice She promised that she'd be right there with me When I paint my masterpiece [Verse] Oh, the hours we've spent inside the Coliseum Dodging lions and wasting time Oh, those mighty kings of the jungle, I could hardly stand to see ’em Well, it sure has been a long, hard climb Train wheels running through the back of my memory When I ran on the hilltop following a pack of wild geese Someday, everything will sound like a rhapsody When I paint my masterpiece [Bridge] Sailed round the world in a dirty gondola Oh, to be back in the land of Coca-Cola! [Verse] I left Rome and I landed in Brussels On a plane ride so bumpy that I almost cried Clergymen in uniform and young girls pulling 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 going to be different When I paint my masterpiece Someday, everything is going to be different When I paint my masterpiece
