Joan Baez - The 33rd Of August Lyrics
Today, there's no salvation, the band's packed up and gone
Left me standing with my penny in my hand
There's a big crowd at the station where the blind man sings his song
But he can see what they cant understand.
Its the thirty-third of August and I'm finally touching down
Eight days from Sunday finds me Saturday bound.
Once I stumbled through the darkness, tumbled to my knees
A thousand voices screaming in my brain
Woke up in a squad car, busted down for vagrancy
Outside my cell as sure as hell, it looked like rain.
But now I've got my dangerous feelings under lock and chain
Guess I killed my violent nature with a smile
Not all my God-like thoughts, Lord, were defiled

Joan Baez The 33rd Of August Comments
Thanks this is a beautiful version!
this is one of the songs that lead me into my career
what does it mean - 33rd of August?
It's a drug infused place rich in memories! You need to have experienced this Herschel to know this place! The 33rd of August is the day after the 32nd of August!!!
It concerns the dilemma of a man who is so confused so much with the way his life has become, he can't figure how to get back to how he used to be when everything was going right.
You uploaded this on sep 2.
It`s 33rd Of August.
Mickey and Joan would at times be entertaining at the same show. They would debate current events back stage.
