[00:00.00]Soap Box Preacher (Album Version) - Robbie Robertson
[00:16.25]Written by：J.R. Robertson/Robbie Robertson
[00:32.50]Soap box preacher
[00:34.92]Standing on the corner
[00:37.76]And all the people they would
[00:40.73]Gather round
[00:43.41]You speak of faith
[00:45.92]With a blaze of glory
[00:48.91]But those that fear they wanna
[00:51.27]Knock you down
[00:53.85]Nobody knows
[00:56.64]Where you live
[00:59.25]Where do you go in the
[01:01.98]Naked night
[01:04.47]All of the prophets
[01:07.31]That come before you
[01:09.89]They can hear your lonesome cry
[01:14.46]When you're out there in the night
[01:17.35]All alone
[01:19.68]When you're staring in the light
[01:21.99]At the end of the road
[01:25.94]In those
[01:27.16]Proud shoes
[01:29.16]Coming on up the alley in those
[01:32.43]Proud shoes
[01:34.44]Walks all over the sky
[01:37.42]Then he tipped his hat
[01:39.66]Just like Don Quixote and said
[01:42.71]Don't let the rapture pass you by
[01:55.93]Heard a bugle blowing
[01:58.48]In the misty morning
[02:01.16]What a haunting sound over
[02:03.74]Times square
[02:06.43]Heard of the ghost
[02:08.43]Of 52nd street
[02:11.71]Looked out the door
[02:13.75]But no one was there
[02:16.98]Out in the cold
[02:19.59]Harlem rain
[02:22.31]I went searching for this
[02:25.03]Minstrel man
[02:27.63]Played me a song
[02:30.11]To ease the pain
[02:32.85]With a salvation
[02:35.19]Army band
[02:37.50]When you're out there on the dark
[02:40.38]All alone
[02:42.67]When you're sleeping in the park
[02:45.26]At the end of the road
[02:50.34]In those
[02:51.53]Proud shoes
[02:53.55]Coming on up the alley in those
[02:56.82]Proud shoes
[02:58.74]Walks all over the sky
[03:01.83]Then he tipped his hat
[03:04.07]Just like Don Quixote and said
[03:07.24]Don't let the rapture pass you by
[03:40.81]In the neon wilderness
[03:43.34]And the ashphalt jungle
[03:46.02]He carries his cross of passion
[03:48.58]Through the wreckage and the rumble
[03:54.98]In those
[03:56.20]Proud shoes
[03:58.22]Coming on up the alley in those
[04:00.96]Proud shoes
[04:03.46]Walks all over the sky
[04:06.38]Then he tipped his hat
[04:08.25]Just like Don Quixote and said
[04:11.68]Don't let the rapture
[04:14.14]Don't let the rapture pass you by
[04:20.49]Don't let it pass you by
[04:24.63]Ooh don't let it pass you by
