@[forrestgib:23605] Your first sentence sums it up nicely. Poetry (lyrics) usually get misinterpreted, it's the connotation, Not the denotation, that is where deeper meanings are hidden, in plain view. |

| Bob Dylan – Cold Irons Bound Lyrics | 11 years ago |
|
Go to youtube, you will find Dylan with a cowboy hat on, and in a cowboy cut suit, just like Hank Williams use to wear on stage. This song was done live on a movie set for Masked, and Anonymous. From the album, Time Out of Mind. There is, NO SHADOW of ANY DOUBT it's Dylan at his very best. The video is close, and tight. The band is on fire, and over the top. The lyrics are superb. I know cold irons bound, is slang for prison, but the lyrics go deeper. This is a little after his second marriage had gone south. So, the drift is just that, but still it goes deeper than anything that I have listened to from Dylan. My parents had Woody, and Hank, but my generation had the Bobcat. I'm a fortunate son to have seen Bob live, twice. We have All been fortunate to drink from is music. |
