i pretty much skimmed through all this so i don't know if this has already been said, but i'm thinking it's just a cesspool pretty much. every time someone's down on highway 61 they're taking part in something shady or perverted or both, it just kind of seems like he's making a little joke of it. i know it's a golden highway of opportunity and all, and it has history and stuff, but maybe this is just one aspect of it, it's a road where anything goes, and apparently a lot of dirty shit happens along the way.
I'd have to agree. I think that he addresses many specific issues in this song, but all in all, his belief that "Highway 61" is just a cesspool is the overriding theme.
