It’s All Good Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Talk about me babe, if you must
Throw on the dirt, pile on the dust

I'd do the same thing if I could
You know what they say, they say it's all good
All good
It's all good


[Verse 2]
Big politician telling lies
Restaurant kitchen, all full of flies

Don't make a bit of difference, don't see why it should
But it's all right, 'cause it's all good
It's all good
It's all good

[Verse 3]
Wives are leaving'their husbands, they are beginning to roam
They leave the party and they never get home
I wouldn't change it, even if I could
You know what they say man, it's all good
It's all good
All good

[Verse 4]
Brick by brick, they tear you down
A teacup of water is enough to drown
You ought to know, if they could they would
Whatever going down, it's all good
All good
Say it's all good
[Verse 5]
People in the country, people on the land
Some of them so sick, they can hardly stand

Everybody would move away, if they could
It's hard to believe but it's all good
Yeah

[Verse 6]
The widow's cry, the orphan's plea
Everywhere you look, more misery
Come along with me, babe, I wish you would
You know what I'm saying, it's all good
All good
I said it's all good
All good

[Verse 7}
Cold-blooded killer, stalking the town
Cop cars blinking, something bad going down
Buildings are crumbling in the neighborhood
But there's nothing to worry about, because it's all good
It's all good
They say it's all good

[Verse 8]
I'll pluck off your beard and blow it in your face
This time tomorrow I'll be rolling in your place

I wouldn't change a thing even if I could
You know what they say, they say it's all good
It's all good

Genius Annotation

“It’s All Good” is the closing track to Bob Dylan’s 33rd studio album “Together Through Life”.

One of the longer songs with more energetic blues feel to close out the album, “It’s All Good” tell that while the world is maybe not the best it can be, it’s nothing bad either. So keep on going as you will and it will be alright as Bob Dylan promises.
