it's hard to imagine bob wier and jerry garcia as san fransiscans... they play off the mississippi folk/jug style music so authentically |

to me, this song defines the dead, maybe just because it's my favorite, but, a song about drinking, working, gambling, and most importantly not fitting in is totally 100% GRATEFUL DEAD... i think hunter wrote this about how all of the authority and upperclass citizens feel about the dead's rebelious carefree attitude toawrds life esp. jerry garcia |

i can't beleive i am the first to comment this. to me this explains the railroad hobos of the midwest an how the keep moving to get a job. i've been to arkansas and tthere are people just like this character jumping the tracks until they finlly settled down
the line "Yeah, I'm goin' back to that shack way across that railroad track,
Uh huh, that's where I think I belong.
And that's where I'm gonna make my happy home." sends chills down my spine and it makes me want to move to like arkansas or tennesee or something |

i love the jam band style mixed with the folk/bluegrass lyrics...dressed in green-marched down unto the scene(as in spying on bertha) not sea... i think this song is about how much he loves bertha and she just keeps messing with him and messing with him but without love its nothing so he is just like dont come around here aanymore because you keep getting me in trouble |

| Bob Dylan – Rainy Day Women #12 & 35 Lyrics

at my first dylan concert he opened with this and my friend says, " a 52 year old man is telling me what to do, not what will happen.
but this song is really about how every artist, every album, and every song will piss at least 1 person off who will stone them verbally, musically, of physically |

the first time dylan sang this in nyc at the show he said that it was not a protest song about war, racism, preduduce ect. instead he just asks how long it will be until the politicians will finally surrender and give blacks rights, stop the draft, and stop making nuclear weapons and stuff. this approach to his day's common issues is geniously effective |

the part about the garage door is genious. i have no background on this song but i'd say its about his ex-girlfriend who moved up from the ramblin guitar player to a high class worker and bob is making fun of her classy hat that she got afterwards |

sublime is the greatest band of thier short, short era...90's... if they lived in the sixties and were still alive... they would be the #1 rock/jam band ever (next to the dead of course) which brad, bud, and eric all were inspired by |

| Bob Dylan – Ballad of a Thin Man Lyrics
| 18 years ago
|
everyobody is wrong... the song is about the media and news and stuff trying to get into his mind and see whatsup, but dylan won't tell them because he doesn't take himself sriously enough to answer press' questions about him going electric, and the enigma he creates crossing from folk to rock....................
You hand in your ticket
And you go watch the geek
Who immediately walks up to you
When he hears you speak
And says, "How does it feel
To be such a freak?"
And you say, "Impossible"
As he hands you a bone
that part is about how the dylan used to show all the press that everyone is wrong about him |
