Songwriter: Bob Dylan

You've got a lotta nerve
You've got a lotta nerve
You've got a lotta nerve
You've got a lotta nerve

You've got a lotta nerve to say you are my friend
When I was down you just stood there grinnin'

You've got a lotta nerve to say you got a helping hand to lend
You just want to be on the side that's winnin'

You say I let you down, ya know its not like that
If you're so hurt, why then don't you show it?

You've got a lotta nerve
You've got a lotta nerve
You've got a lotta nerve
You've got a lotta nerve

No, I do not feel that good to see the heartbreaks you embrace
If I was a master thief perhaps I'd rob them

I know you're dissatisfied with your position and your place
Don't you understand, its not my problem?

When you know as well as me, you'd rather see me paralyzed
Why don't you just come out once and scream it?

You've got a lotta nerve
You've got a lotta nerve
You've got a lotta nerve
You've got a lotta nerve

[Solo]

I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes
And just for that one moment I could be you

Yes, I wish that for just one time you could stand inside my shoes
You'd know what a drag it is to see you

You've got a lotta nerve
You've got a lotta nerve
You've got a lotta nerve
You've got a lotta nerve

You've got a lotta nerve
You've got a lotta nerve
You've got a lotta nerve
You've got a lotta nerve

You've got a lotta nerve
You've got a lotta nerve
