Bob Dylan - Paths Of Victory Lyrics






Trails of troubles
Roads of battles
Paths of victory
I shall walk

The trail is dusty
And my road it might be rough
But the better roads are waiting
And boys it ain't far off

Trails of troubles
Roads of battles
Paths of victory
We shall walk

I walked down by the river
I turned my head up high
I saw that silver linin'
That was hangin' in the sky

Trails of troubles
Roads of battles
Paths of victory
We shall walk

The evenin' dusk was rollin'
I was walking down the track
There was a one-way wind a-blowin'
And it was blowin' at my back

Trails of troubles
Roads of battles
Paths of victory
We shall walk

The gravel road is bumpy
It's a hard road to ride
But there's a clearer road a-waitin'
With the cinders on the side

Trails of troubles
Roads of battles
Paths of victory
We shall walk

That evening train was rollin'
The hummin' of its wheels
My eyes they saw a better day
As I looked across the fields

Trails of troubles
Roads of battles
Paths of victory
We shall walk

The trail is dusty
The road it might be rough
But the good road is a-waitin'
And boys it ain't far off

Trails of troubles
Roads of battles
Paths of victory
We shall walk

    This is my favorite Dylan song, and it's just a scrap swept up off the music publisher's office floor. It's heartbreaking now to hear this one - in the same way it hurts to think about the sixties, where we got a fleeting glimpse into a possible American future that was not to be. Surely, the bounty we'd "discovered" in this new half of the planet, governed by our enlightened political experiment, was going to yield an unprecedented paradise for humans on earth. Now, after four decades of concerted clampdown in response to that whiff of a suggestion, it's clear that we'll never even have the usual kind of healthcare system here. Why? Because the men who wrest and wield the mighty Power of Freedom, vested in them by GOD, tend to be ...what? Assholes.

    It's one of my favories too, but due to the copyright of the released version I can't upload it. This is just a demo, so it wasn't intended to be perfect. Just Bob and a guitar.

    D.... ....

    Yeah, the piano version lacks the magic I hear in this demo, and "When the Ship Comes In," which seems a more full-blown rendition of this sentiment, is a less affecting song for me. I think he was, as so often was the case, well past this song by the time interest in it was expressed. The pause towards the end is while he tries to recall the rest of the words, and then at the end he says "That's about all I can remember of that one." Thank you for this post.

    muy buena....gracias¡ da gusto conocer cada día un poco más al grande de Bob Dylan

    B.... E....

    Gracias también a ti por tu trabajo ¡Saludos! :)

    Me hubiera gustado poder subir la versión lanzada oficialmente, la cual tiene más versos y un excelso acompañamiento de piano y armónica que hacen de esta canción mucho mejor aún (aparte claro, la voz de Bob se escucha mejor), pero por razones ya sabidas es imposible.

  9. I.... B....

    Preciosa, me encanta ! Mil gracias por subirla...<3 <3 <3

    :) De hecho esta es una de mis canciones favoritas de Bob. En momentos de abatimiento me da consuelo. La interpreto como que todo esfuerzo tiene su recompensa, por la antítesis entre seguir trayectos duros pero al final recorrer senderos de victoria.

    I.... B....

    Me ocurre lo mismo, con su obra en general.Dylan es la "voz" de mi Alma,me siento identificada totalmente con él,su música, su trayectoria vital del gran buscador de sí mismo que es.Lo adoro...su música es mi consuelo. Gracias por todo <3 <3
