Lyrics:
Come you masters of war
You that build the big guns
You that build the death planes
You that build all the bombs
You that hide behind walls
You that hide behind desks
I just want you to know
I can see through your masks
You that never done nothin'
But build to destroy
You play with my world
Like it's your little toy
You put a gun in my hand
And you hide from my eyes
And you turn and run farther
When the fast bullets fly
Like Judas of old
You lie and deceive
A world war can be won
You want me to believe
But I see through your eyes
And I see through your brain
Like I see through the water
That runs down my drain
You fasten all the triggers
For the others to fire
Then you sit back and watch
When the death count gets higher
You hide in your mansion
While the young people's blood
Flows out of their bodies
And is buried in the mud
You've thrown the worst fear
That can ever be hurled
Fear to bring children
Into the world
For threatening my baby
Unborn and unnamed
You ain't worth the blood
That runs in your veins
How much do I know
To talk out of turn
You might say that I'm young
You might say I'm unlearned
But there's one thing I know
Though I'm younger than you
That even Jesus would never
Forgive what you do
Let me ask you one question
Is your money that good?
Will it buy you forgiveness
Do you think that it could?
I think you will find
When your death takes its toll
All the money you made
Will never buy back your soul
And I hope that you die
And your death will come soon
I'll follow your casket
By the pale afternoon
And I'll watch while you're lowered
Down to your deathbed
And I'll stand over your grave
'Til I'm sure that you're dead

More than sixty years later, this song still cuts like a knife and remains relevant today.
He will remain immortal. Bob Zimmerman 1 n only 1.respect regards.
Unfortunately, he is a fanatical Zionist 💩
My thoughts exactly! From the river to the sea Palestine will be free, insh’Allah!❤️🇵🇸🍉
It's like we never learn
@@TimothyWrathBlisswe don’t!! I truly hope and pray that we will 😔
Terrifying how relevant this song is sixty years later.
bob dylan hace himnos
Guess I'm not the only one who thought of this song today.
This song literally just came back to mind today. Guess I’ll be doing a re-listen of all the anti war songs of the 60’s. I’ll listen to the I-feel-like-I’m-fixing-to-die rag by country joe next
While good men stand idly by & accept evil, this song will always be relevant.
3 songs from 'The Man' come to mind .
This one, and
'Its Alright Ma'/
''With God on our Side'...
"Propaganda, All is phoney'
"I was taught to hate the Russians
All through my whole life,
If another war comes
It's them we must fight,
To hate them and fear them
To run and to hide,
And accept it all bravely,
With God on our side"
All we need to know.
The song will probably always remain timeless.
Til the day humanity goes extinct.
@@forsakenlife4873 Its looking more and more like war is actually part of the human existance. Not looking encouraging.
Sadly, that’s not exactly a good thing, is it?
@@lorijohnson2348 As much as I love this song, it would be best if we could just forget about this one at some time.
@@MrWireguy ..as long as there are p s y c h o p a t h s who don't care for human life, there will always be war. The main problem throughout history has always been the p s y c h o p a t h s.
This song reminds me of when I got drafted during the Vietnam War. I remember a drill sergeant saying," You're not fighting this war for mom and apple pie, you're fighting it for Dow Chemical, Dupont and ITT" He was right companies made millions while soldiers died. This song explains it all.
...and a major chemical company made Agent Orange.
@@crazyleyland5106 Yep Dupont I think.
@@oldguy9078 Monsanto.
@@crazyleyland5106 Thanks Crazy thought it was Dupont wasn't sure. Does not really matter who made it everyone was sprayed and betrayed.
Was it General Smedley Butler who said "all wars are bankers wars"?
He doesn't mention any particular event, person, year, or country...Making the lyrics universal and valid forever. Clever.
and sadly they keep being relevant. over and over again.
That's just how you write a song.
You just helped me with my music homework aha
He didnt have to.
Would you if you could? Would you if you should? Would you?
The line, “You ain’t worth the blood that runs in your veins.” Chills me every time I hear it.
It's true.
The way those words are delivered with the guitar work is really cold.
@@anthonyennis4283 foreal bro
I like how it’s echoed in the earlier verse with “like I see through the water that runs down my drain” which seems almost a little incongruous when he first says it. But it makes sense with that later line, I think, and the meaning of imagery is sort of revealed.
Every line/verse of this song gives me chills. Hard to think of a better "diss track" aimed at politicians and war mongers.
This song always brings tears to my eyes but I can never quite work out if they’re tears of frustration, sorrow or rage.
❤it shoudn't give frustration, only a seriously warning
All the above.
That last verse is some of the coldest shit ever said in a song, in a song covered in cold shit. Without a doubt, this is the greatest anti-war song ever written.
yes! + War war what is it good for absolutely nothing
Someone should play for biden
@@brianfitzgerald2779 and Harris, Blinken etc..talking about..when the war ends, this, that and the other. WTF!!! they think that'll shut up millions of protesters worldwide while thousands are dead in the Palestinian territories and the ethnic cleansing continues unabated..while their prodigy commits every war crime in full view of the world. Shame on the US, you created a MONSTER.
@@brianfitzgerald2779 i was thinking about putin but yeah
When Judy Collins recorded her version of this song, she chose to leave that last verse out because she thought that it sounded too vengeful. But for me, it’s that sense of blazing anger the gives the song its oomph. After all, it’s hardly as if you can be nice and polite about these kind of things
Dylan doesn't get enough credit for the way he changes his voice to fit his lyrics. His use of a bluegrass vocal here is perfect. I love his spoken and sung pronunciation of particular words and lines.
Truth
💯 that's the catalyst , that when you recognize it and it clicks, makes him one of a kind
That is so true you are so right, without a doubt the best comment I have red tonight...!!!👌
And behind it all his musical genius...so inaudable because of the power of his lyrics.
Woody must have been an aural treat when he lifted his machine, whether or not he felt like singing just then.
The Bards of my times.
I do agree with you, as I have thought of it too, especially when listening "Subterranean Homesick Blues" and "Hurricane".
I was 14 when I first heard this song, listening to my Dad's old vinyls. I was never the same again. Bob knew exactly what was going on. More relevant than ever.
almost exactly the same experience for me. My dad's vinyl introduced me to actual songwriting through Dylan
"Songs can't save the world. I've gone through all that." - Bob Dylan
Not All not yet.
One can hope that it can! I don't have a better idea.
"I used to care, but things have changed"
Only Jesus can since It is the work of His mouth.
It's a dam shame about ukr but tyrants as historians say they have no future xterry
Some songs are called legendary but really aren't, this however is a timeless masterpiece.
*DITO* you say it !
it is timeless. but no way it's a masterpiece. These verses, i mean these sentences, statements had been repeated all over the world for centuries before, in many languages. Illiterate people had been talking all that , much before Bob Dylan was born... He has a lot of masterpieces, but this is just a casual song
Perhaps the best anti-war song ever written.
War pigs by black sabbath is 2nd
"War" by Edwin Starr is arguably the coolest one to listen to.
As good as an anti war song can be I guess.
With God On Our Side is also very good
It either Masters of War or War Pigs. I know War Pigs is overplayed. But musically it's a ten. Bill Ward was birthed to play on that. And Geezer Butler's songwriting was probably the best of the 70's. All that matched with Ozzy and his unique soulfulness and you have a pretty good contender.
Incredible. He was only 21 when he wrote this, too.
he didn't the universe did, Bob was just a perceptive conduit.
@@bhew7409 nah
@@rasmuslillie8712 I was quoting Bob 😉
He's responsible for so many Amazing songs. Love Black Diamond Bay the entire Desire album is bomb.

Wow

Sad.
War, war never changes
waterglass21 so true❤️
This has got to be, in my opinion, the absolute greatest anti-war song ever written and the most emotionally moving anti-war song performance I have ever heard. It still resonates just as profoundly to me now as it did the first time I heard it, years ago, on a scratchy old vinyl copy of "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan" that I was lucky enough to find for a buck in a thrift store - it was a well-worn copy, far from mint condition, with plenty of crackle and pop surface noise, but it didn't skip once, every song played all the way through, and I felt blessed at my good fortune finding it. Sadly, those days of unexpected gold being discovered amongst stacks and stacks of old Engelbert Humperdinck and Barry Manilow records are long gone and today even the Barry Manilow records are going for $5 to $10 at Goodwill, even if they're scratched all to hell and beyond playability... vinyl has become an overpriced and reflexively overvalued commodity as a result of the nostalgic vinyl renaissance of the last decade or so. On the one hand, I'm happy to see the finest format of physical media for music not only survive but thrive, especially when extinction once seemed so certain as to be absolutely assured at a couple points in its long and unlikely but illustrious history. On the other hand, I hate that the price of vinyl, whether it's 180-gram remastered reissues or old and dusty, deeply scratched and unplayable old original copies of whatever at the Salvation Army store, has skyrocketed to ridiculous heights in recent years as a result of all the renewed interest in vinyl, particularly among millennials and the younger generations. At what price immortality?
In any case, the music - the good music, the great music, like "Masters of War" by Bob Dylan and the rest of this amazingly timeless record - remains as awesome as ever and for that I am forever grateful. Thanks, Bob Dylan.
agreed.."war pigs " by black sabbath is pretty strong too
@@4465Vman Absolutely! I'm a huge fan of that song as well, and of (Ozzy-era) Sabbath in general!
He's 'The Man'
I dropped out of vinyl in early 2018, not just for the reason's listed here, but also it's overall inconvenience and inconsistency, plus the community's toxicity and retardation gets worse by the day. 78RPM is far better as a format and speed, too bad it only lasted the first 8 decades of commercialized recordings.
good album left school hit the road at that time
This song is timeless (Shame another war has started)
Yeah, and we could be on the brink of WWIII and nuclear war.
# PUTIN MUST BE STOPPED
War is HEll not just a shame???
Thanks to the Joe Biden administration..
@@eric.lerickson260 buddy this shit has been escalating since the 90s, but it is partially on the Obama administration, what with the coup d'etat in Ukraine in 2014
This song is brilliant. The lyrics are more than amazing by how accurate they are. Young people are sent to war to die in order to satisfy some people's crave for money and authority. There is no real winner in a war, just death and misery. Sadly, it will take many years for some people to understand that the death, the suffering, the fear, the depression, the trauma and the blood are never worth it.
I am so glad to have discovered Bob Dylan's music

"You've thrown the worst fear that could ever be hurled. Fear to bring children into this world". Sobering to say the least.
Glad, I checked the comments before I myself posted what you did!! That one line It sure drove it home for me. I was 11 dring The Cuban Missile Crises. Certain I was gonna die,
All the money you made will never buy back your soul. 😭😥
Yup..hes something else..
Timeless...... Hope one day people stand united against the war machine. RIP to all victims of war
60 years later and the song is still relevant. this song really is timeless!
as many of his songs still are...
Sadly
If Dylan wrote lyrics without adding music he would be considered the greatest poet of our generation, evidenced by his Noble prize for literature.
I don't understand why, they call it the Nobel peace prize lol because he was a warmonger, he made munitions and bullets. I think he invented a explosive but could be wrong on that. But a peace prize should be named after some1 who did peace,like Ghandi, or Lennon, etc etc ... But not Nobel lol.
He actually created the Noble Foundation because he had so much remorse for the destruction he created.
@@douglayton3498 he also said tnt would end more war than peace talks lol
Doug Layton if you like Bobs poetry you have to check out Walt Whitman
???
Greatest anti-war song ever written.
Man Bob was seriously angry when he wrote this. Theres millions of punk- and metal song whose lyrics are not that intense.
When you listen to these early Dylan protest songs, you start to really understand why the folk (and at that time very anti-war) people were so eager to try to claim him as theirs and/or make him their "savior" or "prophet." I mean look at the kind of shit this literal kid was writing, it's unreal... On the other hand, I'm so glad he told them to fuck off and did his own thing. Songs like Subterranean Homesick Blues is like a direct middle finger to the people who had put him on a pedestal for his anti-war lyrics. What a fucking badass.
Bob Dylan was and still is one of the best musicians and poets ever. Terrifying how real this reality is again with the war in Ukraine.

There are people that believe he didn't deserve the nobel laureate he recently received. They've never heard this song or felt the spirit of it.
They say he had ghost writers. That is something that is discussed behind the scenes.
Who gives a fuck about some trophy
It would make an absolutely terrible poem. It's a great song. There's no Nobel prize for music, they should have started one and made him the first recipient. I think he won because they mixed up him and Leonard Cohen, who wrote excellent poems as well as music.
If that last minutes doesn’t give you the complete goosebumps and chills something is wrong .. what an ending to a timeless piece
Once again this song comes into our minds.

Some things that make it as one of the best songs ever made in the history of the human race
Considering this came out BEFORE Kennedy got blown away. And before the Viet Nam war seriously took off. This song is prophetic. Bob must have had a crystal ball.

I was reading a Bob Dylan Songbook last night, when I crossed this song.
After reading the lyrics, I had never heard this, that I recall... so I looked for the video here.
I replied to another comment that this had never been more pertinent.
I'm grateful I found this, but equally shaken, by its incredible relevance.
It seems as though we have been guided back to the Gates of Hell... once again.

No doubt
"Those who Destroy God's Earth shall be destroyed"The Book
I rediscovered the New Testament too. The gay community should have aligned with Jesus instead of the Democrats.
"None of them along the line, know what any of it is worth".
Bob Dylan's words are the conscience of humanity.
Right now as we speak the odds are very, very likely that somebody is being stabbed to death in a personal, hateful rage. Somebody else has, in the span of me typing this, been shot dead. Somebody raped, somebody strangled, somebody hugged, somebody kissed, a daughter bid farewell; perhaps for the last time. Perhaps they will meet again many more times. If this is too edgy for you, consider all of the love in the world, those little shared moments that are happening all over right now. I'm not trying to seed a depressing vision of the world, truly. In accepting all of the negativity, you accept the positivity.
We are alone here. Is that not comforting? It's all on us. There's nobody making us good or evil, indeed there is no such thing. We just are what we are, in every moment we will. You now are not who you will be in ten minutes. With such control, can you not call that something close to freedom? Every choice you make is uniquely yours. Every moment you life is unique. There are no constraints. I realize this is borderline anti-social to be posting to a comment as simple as yours and I apologize for it, I just like to do weird pseudo-nihilistic preaching on RUclips comments on a Sunday.

ikr
This song changed my view on my government and country, this song showed me the truth
"I'll stand over your grave til I'm sure that you're dead." Hilariously, Bob Dylan has outlived all the warmongers from his time, so that is for sure a true statement. I'm sure Bob Dylan truly did stand over their graves, there was a just as much warmongering back then there is today.
Tomorrow is a new day.
All the money you’ve made will never buy back your SOUL!!!!
Ain’t it nice that this is relevant today..............
I thought I was one of the only ones. No song like this that can paint the enemy of the whole human race.
Especially now, when there's a huge deficit in civility within the walls of the high places
Deathtone no
Dont shoot me (pardon the pun) but I have been enjoying the RPWL version (prog rock band)
I remember when protest songs were popular with my friends and I. Vietnam and all. Now my old friends dont seem to like to disagree with with der leader. We have more than ever to fear, question and protest.
"All the money you've made, will never buy back your soul"
Bob Dylan sold his soul to the Devil.

He was given the Nobel Prize for some reasons. This is one of them.
a lot of dylan's songs are eternal. this is for sure one of them. if you pull out any history book you'd find those masters of war, bleeding others' blood, especially the youth's.
2022 and still the most relevant lyrics to date
Re listen to " With God on Our Side " wow the Russians we will hate ....
One of the best songs ever written. Hands down.
The lyrics are deep and at the same time very clear ... incredible songwriting - only a genius like Dylan can do this!
When I was younger, the anger and rage in this song didn't make any sense to me at all, but now that I'm older and I actually understand what it's talking about. HOOOO GOLLY. "And I'll stand over your grave till I'm sure that you're dead."
Felt compelled to have a listen on the day of the death of Dr. Henry Kissinger.
This song should always remain timeless. It should remind people, no matter what their ethnicity, they should come together. Come together reminds me of a song that not just be sung but shouted across the world
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here
Bob Dylan brought me here.
Me too
Red fly brought me here
Triple Frontier brought me here
Robert Zimmerman of mid Minnesota. He knew about "boys homes" as well. The walls of Red Wing was written about juvie facilities
Great lyrics. Still just as relevant today.
Bob è stato più di una generazione e le sue ballate saranno patrimonio per molte altre generazioni.
The Terminal List brought me here. BADASS show!!!!
Man, I loved this song for so many years now. The lyrics are so incredible good and as much valid today as back in the 60's. Move people should be freewheelin' today.
“And I hope that you die
And your death will come soon
I'll follow your casket
On a pale afternoon
And I'll watch while you're lowered
Down to your deathbed
And I'll stand over your grave
'Til I'm sure that you're dead”
Feelings don’t get any clearer than that.
They do not. Would that we could.
Yeah, he's not really mincing words there, is he?
Julie Felix made a decent living out of that song, but she never sang that verse
That is a *brutal* final verse.
It’s true. For me, it’s that verse that makes the song so powerful. Unmatched.
Perfect song for the occasion of Donald Rumsfeld’s passing.
Perfect!
I didn't hear the great news.
If there's a heaven son, he isn't in it!
It's so much deeper than rumsfeld. It spans parties, generations, borders
@@danc2879 True. But those bloodthirsty neocons were a special bread. Was a true wake up call for myself that war mongering wasn’t just a thing in the history books. The lie of the needless Iraq was something else. Still paying the price with that war today with 20 veteran suicides daily. And we completely destabilized and wrecked the Middle East, which seems to have been the neocons goal.
Just as relevant 60 yrs later. Impressive.
One day this song will stop being relevant. I just hope I'm alive to see it.
Bob dylan is a legend
Easily
Here we are again going down the same road....
Timeless...
For someone who was only 21, when he recorded this album, Bob Dylan sure was wise beyond his years. This album has diverse topics on it. Songs like this are still of relevance today. This lyrical brilliance and depth is not going to be duplicated very easily. If there was a list of the 10 best albums from the 1960s, this would have to be on the top of that list, for sure.
People younger than him were being drafted and murdered at the government's command.
@@WendyWatersctmm Not surprising and very sad.
The impact of later Dylan albums equalled that of Freewheelin' but none of them exceeded it.
He even threw in a verse predicting he'd get dismissed out of hand because if his age.
Drugs
Only the dead know the end of war.
It was chilling when I first heard it all those years ago when it first came out, and its even more truthful and chilling today.
And once again, I now dedicate this song to Henry Kissinger, war criminal.
Did the same on a Facebook post by a friend.
"i can see through your masks" and "when the death count gets higher" may not have the same meaning today, but it is incredibly haunting to realize its revelance...
It has the same meaning to some, its just that today its a volunteer army not a drafted army, so we let them be expendable, without holding those in power responsible for sending them to be slaughtered and maimed. We that are free from war have become complicit with the Masters of War.
America is still very much active in proxy wars specially in some of the middle east countries... So yeah this song is more relevant than ever..
There are many songs from the 60s and early 70s that are just as, if not more relevant today.
i.e. Marvin Gaye's "What's Goin' On", and "The Ecology Song."
Steppenwolf's "Monster"
Hendrix's "Up From the Skies".
From the musical "Hair", "The Flesh Failures"
"We starve, look at one another short of breath
Walking proudly in our winter coats
Wearing smells from laboratories
Facing a dying nation of moving paper fantasy
Listening for the new told lies
With supreme visions of lonely tunes
Somewhere, inside something , there is a rush of greatness
Who knows what stands in front of our lives
I fashion my future on films in space
Silence tells me secretly ev'rything, ev'rything."

Laws that prevent lynch mobs from stringing people up or cutting them down without a fair trial in front of their peers. I am under no illusion that the Koch brothers are good people. In my state they funded attempts to make voting harder for the American people, and curtail my right to organize and unionize. They are BAD people.

"Jesus would never forgive what you do." Simple line but moving. Reminds me of the Hemingway 'Iceberg theory.' Basically saying more with less in your writing.
Anyone coming from ‘The terminal list’? it’s such a good series I binged it all!!
Don't you just love how this song will be relavent until the end of humanity?
Spaceman Spliff I hope you are wrong. Bc of this stay relevant for ever; it means there is no hope for humanity to ever achieve a world without war. I hope this song gets listened to by those who run the defense industry and stop them from constantly creating enemies to be wary of so that they can sell their weapons. Look at how they keep trying to make Russia and China into our enemies.
@@arajoaina I'll pretend you made a typo and really meant to say "Russia and China are trying to be our enemies."
Definitely
@@ADAMdinho1 No no....I don't love that at all.. You wouldn't be saying this, if you'd experienced the profound loss and tragedy of war.
This is the best protest song ever written period.
You’ve thrown the worst fear that could ever be hurled, fear to bring children into the world, for threatening my baby unborn and unnamed you ain’t worth the blood that runs in your veins ( YIKES! How do you come up with that) combined with the sneer of contempt in the vocal delivery BRILLIANT
Bob Dylan the bestest brother humanity has.blessings bro xxx
There’s so many emotions this invokes. This man truly is a legend, his words bite
Hello I really do appreciate you for being a big fan,thank you for your wonderful comments on my post,it really means a lot to me.I sincerely hope you never stop listenin to my music….Love ❤️
I think the least the thing that can be said is there’s never been another person like Bob Dylan.
Have you heard Of Larry Norman?
This is the greatest anti war song in the history of mankind. Coming in second is War pigs by Black Sabbath. Dylan is just much better with words and makes this cut deep. Eddie Vedder does a fantastic rendition of this song on 30th Anniversary Dylan tribute album that’s worth a listen.
“All that money you made will never buy back your soul” wow.
Finally the original song in youtube, i was so tired of the covers lol
Was lernen wir aus der Geschite? Wir lernen aus der Geschichte, dass der Mensch aus der Geschichte nichts lernt!
Had this Album when i was sixteen. Still relevant to this day.
Hello dear, it’s nice meeting you on here
Quanto è attuale il contenuto di questa canzone, con i tanti conflitti attualmente in atto! Questa è proprio una ballata senza tempo.
It's unbelievable what B.D. has written through the years... He's the voice of humankind.
I think the craziest part of this song is the fact that I'll listen to the chilling realism and the biting commentary found within it, and then right after I'll get an ad for RUclips Music blasting a pop song by Ariana Grande. Holy shit, does the contrast between good music and bad really stand out here.
Nothing farther away from Blowin' in the Wind than Masters of War. This is the ultimate rage-against-the-machine song. Heads and tails facing each other in a superb record.🤘🏼
So true 2023 Never Forgotten ✌️
