Lyrics Manfred Mann's Earth Band

Manfred Mann's Earth Band

It's All Over Now, Baby Blue

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

Whatever you wish to keep, you better grab it fast

Yonder stands your orphan with his gun

He's crying like a fire in the sun

Look over there the saints are coming through

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 streets

Is painting crazy patterns on your sheets

The sky, too, is falling over you

And it's all over now, Baby Blue

All your seasick sailors, they are rowing home

All your gathered armies, they are blowing home

Your lover who just has walked out the door

Has taken all the blankets from the floor

The carpet, too, is moving under you

And it's all over now, Baby Blue
