Bob Dylan - New Morning: Wikipedia Album Entry
New Morning is singer-songwriter Bob Dylan's 11th studio album, released by Columbia Records in October 1970.
Coming only four months after the controversial Self Portrait, the more concise and immediate New Morning won a much warmer reception from fans and critics. Most welcome was the return of Dylan's more familiar, nasally singing voice. However, on Alberta #1 (Self Portrait), he has a slight nasal tone in his voice, but this was his first full album with his familiar voice since John Wesley Harding in 1967 (he had taken on an affected country croon since then). In retrospect, the album has come to be viewed as one of the artist's lesser successes, especially following the release of Blood on the Tracks in 1975, often seen as a fuller return-to-form.
It reached #7 in the U.S., quickly going gold, and gave Bob Dylan his 6th UK #1 album. The album's most successful song from a commercial perspective is probably "If Not For You," which was covered by George Harrison, who had played guitar on a version of the song not released until 1991's Bootleg Series Volume 2, and was also an international hit for Olivia Newton-John in 1971. Bryan Ferry also included the song on Dylanesque.

Bob Dylan - New Morning Lyrics
Bob Dylan - Day of The Locusts Lyrics
Oh, the benches were stained with tears and perspiration
The birdies were flyin' from tree to tree
There was little to say, there was no conversation
As I stepped to the stage to pick up my degree
Bob Dylan - Winterlude Lyrics
Winterlude, winterlude, oh darlin'
Winterlude by the road tonight
Tonight there will be no quarrelin'
Ev'rything is gonna be all right
Bob Dylan - Time Passes Slowly Lyrics
Time passes slowly up here in the mountains
We sit beside bridges and walk beside fountains
Catch the wild fishes that float through the stream
Time passes slowly when you're lost in a dream
Bob Dylan - Three Angels Lyrics
Three angels up above the street
Each one playing a horn
Dressed in green robes with wings that stick out
They're been there since Christmas morn'
Bob Dylan - The Man in Me Lyrics
The man in me will do nearly any task
And as for compensation, there's a little he would ask
Take a woman like you
To get through to the man in me
Bob Dylan - Sign on The Window Lyrics
Sign on the window says, "Lonely"
Sign on the door said, "No company allowed"
Sign on the street says, "You don't own me"
Sign on the porch says, "Three's a crowd"
Bob Dylan - One More Weekend Lyrics
Slippin' and slidin' like a weasel on the run
I'm lookin' good to see you yea, and we can have some fun
One more weekend, one more weekend with you
One more weekend, one more weekend will do
Bob Dylan - New Morning Lyrics
Can't you hear that rooster crowin'?
Rabbit runnin' down across the road
Underneath the bridge
Where the water flowed through
Bob Dylan - If Not for You Lyrics
If not for you, babe, I couldn't find the door
Couldn't even see the floor
I'd be sad and blue
If not for you
Bob Dylan - If Dogs Run Free Lyrics
If dogs run free, then why not we
Across the swooping plain?
My ears hear a symphony
Of two mules, trains and rain
Bob Dylan - Father of Night Lyrics
Aaa, ooh, ooh
Aaa, ooh, ooh
Aaa, ooh, ooh
Aaa, ooh, ooh
Bob Dylan - Went To Se The Gypsy Lyrics
Went to see the gypsy
Stayin' in a big hotel
He smiled when he saw me coming
And he said "Well, well, well"
