It S All Over Now Lyrics - Dick's Picks, Vol. 18: Dane County Coliseum, Madison - Grateful Dead

You must leave, now take what you need you think will last 

Whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast. 

Yonder stands your orphan with his gun, 

He is crying like a fire in the sun. 

Look out, all those saints are coming through 

And it's all over now, Baby Blue, 

And it's all over now, Baby Blue. 

The highway is for gamblers, you better use your sense. 

Take what you have gathered from coincidence. 

The empty handed painter from your street 

Is drawing crazy patterns on your sheets. 

The sky too is folding under you, 

And it's all over now Baby Blue. 

All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home 

Your empty-handed armies are going home. 

Your lover who has just walked out your door 

Has taken all his blankets off the floor. 

The carpet too is moving under you, 

And it's all over now Baby Blue. 

Leave your stepping stones behind, there's something calls for you 

Forget about the dead you've left, they will not follow you 

The vagabond who's rapping at your door 

Is standing in the clothes you once wore. 

Strike another match, go start anew, 

And it's all over now Baby Blue [Repeat: x3]
