oldtimer Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 OK. You just are not a Dylan fan, so this will end it all: And said that way down on Highway 61. Well Mack the Finger said to Louie the King I got forty red white and blue shoe strings And a thousand telephones that don't ring Do you know where I can get rid of these things And Louie the King said let me think for a minute son And he said yes I think it can be easily done Just take everything down to Highway 61. Now the fifth daughter on the twelfth night Told the first father that things weren't right My complexion she said is much too white He said come here and step into the light he says hmm you're right Let me tell the second mother this has been done But the second mother was with the seventh son And they were both out on Highway 61. Now the rovin' gambler he was very bored He was tryin' to create a next world war He found a promoter who nearly fell off the floor He said I never engaged in this kind of thing before But yes I think it can be very easily done We'll just put some bleachers out in the sun And have it on Highway 61. There is much more, but point made, Jeff, I hand over the mantle of challenger to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Matthews Posted January 10, 2006 Author Share Posted January 10, 2006 No, I can't accept the status as winner when I didn't win. Give us something else. I'm pretty good at even some more obscure rock, but Dylan was not on the top of my list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 In the dark where all the fevers grow Under the water where the shark bubbles blow In the morning by your radio do the walls close in to suffocate you You ain't got no friends And all the others they hate you Does the the life you been leadin' got to go?

oldtimer Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Try this one, percussive friend: And you may find yourself living in a shotgun shack And you find your self in another part of the world And you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile And you may find yourself in a beautiful house---with a beautiful wife And you may ask yourself--Well, How did I get here?

Jeff Matthews Posted January 10, 2006 Author Share Posted January 10, 2006 It's one of my favorite tunes from the band who did it. Very reminiscent of the psychadelic era, but not way out there. Let's see if anyone gets it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
