I always thought it was about some girl that Dylan was infatuated with, but she thinks she is too good for him because she is too popular (hence the irony in the title).
Basically Dylan is saying that when all her worshippers desert her and she learns the transience of popularity then she can still turn to him. He comes across as rather pathetic now that I think of it.
Still, this is my favourite Dylan song after Desolation Row. I love the imagery.
