Songwriter: Bob Dylan
Oh you can read out of your bible
You can fall down on your knees
Pretty mama, and pray to the lord
But it ain't gonna do you no good
You're gonna need
You're gonna need my help someday
Well, if you can't quit your sinnin'
Please quit your low down ways
Well you can run down to the White House
You can gaze at the Capitol Dome
Pretty mama, you can pound on the President's gate
It'll do you no good
You're gonna need
You're gonna need my help someday
Well, if you can't quit your sinnin'
Please quit your low down ways
Well you can run down to the desert
Throw yourself on the burnin sand
You can raise up your right hand pretty mama
But you better understand
You're gonna need
You're gonna need my help someday
Well, if you can't quit your sinnin'
Please quit your low down ways
You can hitch hike on the highways
You can stand alone by the side of the road
You can try to flag a ride back home, pretty mama
But you can't ride in my car
You're gonna need
You're gonna need my help someday
Well, if you can't quit your sinnin'
Please quit your low down ways
Oh you can read out of your bible
You can fall down on your knees
Pretty mama, and pray to the lord
But it ain't gonna do you no good
You're gonna need
You're gonna need my help someday
Well, if you can't quit your sinnin'
Please quit your low down ways
Quit your low down ways
You can fall down on your knees
Pretty mama, and pray to the lord
But it ain't gonna do you no good
You're gonna need
You're gonna need my help someday
Well, if you can't quit your sinnin'
Please quit your low down ways
Well you can run down to the White House
You can gaze at the Capitol Dome
Pretty mama, you can pound on the President's gate
It'll do you no good
You're gonna need
You're gonna need my help someday
Well, if you can't quit your sinnin'
Please quit your low down ways
Well you can run down to the desert
Throw yourself on the burnin sand
You can raise up your right hand pretty mama
But you better understand
You're gonna need
You're gonna need my help someday
Well, if you can't quit your sinnin'
Please quit your low down ways
You can hitch hike on the highways
You can stand alone by the side of the road
You can try to flag a ride back home, pretty mama
But you can't ride in my car
You're gonna need
You're gonna need my help someday
Well, if you can't quit your sinnin'
Please quit your low down ways
Oh you can read out of your bible
You can fall down on your knees
Pretty mama, and pray to the lord
But it ain't gonna do you no good
You're gonna need
You're gonna need my help someday
Well, if you can't quit your sinnin'
Please quit your low down ways
Quit your low down ways
