Dignity - Bob Dylan

Fat man lookin' in a blade of steelThin man lookin' at his last mealHollow man lookin' in a cottonfieldFor dignity
Wise man lookin' in a blade of grassYoung man lookin' in the shadows that passPoor man lookin' through painted glassFor dignity
Somebody got murdered on New Year's EveSomebody said dignity was the first to leaveI went into the city, went into the townWent into the land of the midnight sun
Searchin' high, searchin' lowSearchin' everywhere I knowAskin' the cops wherever I goHave you seen dignity?
Blind man breakin' out of a trancePuts both his hands in the pockets of chanceHopin' to find one circumstanceOf dignity
I went to the wedding of Mary-louShe said
