    Lyrics:
    Johnny's in the basement, mixin' up the medicine
    I'm on the pavement, thinkin' about the government
    The man in a trench coat, badge out, laid off
    Says he's got a bad cough, wants to get it paid off
    Look out kid, it's somethin' you did
    God knows when, but you're doin' it again
    You better duck down the alleyway, looking for a new friend
    The man in the coon-skin cap in a pig pen
    Wants 11 dollar bills - you only got 10

      Bob is a real one, still, to this day. I remember a few years ago, I saw an interview with him on a major network, can't remember which one. Maybe CNN or something. Anyway the interviewer quoted one of his greats and asked him how he wrote those lyrics and Bob kept his perspective, as always, and basically said "I don't know. I couldn't do it now. It just happened"
      I'm paraphrasing, but it was a great reply. Anyone who's ever written a decent song knows what he's talking about.

I took most of the money I made doing drywall with him to buy Bob's entire catalog. As I get older and have to say goodbye to people I loved, I find an everlasting connection by continuing to enjoy the things we once shared together. Sorry about your pops.

      You could also watch the whole thing because this 'video' is the opening sequence to the DA Pennabaker 'biopic' film Don't Look Back filmed when Dylan toured Britain in 1965. Another lesser-known Dylan track which is spine-tingling is Let Me Die In My Footsteps from 1963 which was omitted from the Freewheelin' album although personally I think it's superior to some of the other tracks on that album.

      With regard to your Bob Dylan comments - the 'video' was actually the opening sequence to the 'biopic' filmed on Dylan's tour to Great Britain in 1965 by DA Pennabaker. The captions I think were created by Dylan's friend Bobby Neuerwith (?) who can be seen throughout the whole film - also on the cover (half of him !) of Highway 61 Revisited. The bearded gentleman in the background who walks away at the end is Allen Ginsberg the 'Beat' poet.

      @keithwilliams9902 7 років тому +59

      It's clever on a couple of points. Remember, the time frame this song was written was late 1960's. A militant, left wing radical organization known as the Weather Underground , also know as Weathermen formed on the U Michigan Ann Arbor campus, as a faction of Students for Democratic Society or SDS. So Dylan is saying that you don't need a radical, like a Weatherman to tell you what is going on (which way the wind blows). He is also saying that you don't need a tv weather person to tell you which way the wind is blowing. Revolution was in the air, (the way the wind blows), Viet Nam protests, the Weather underground actually declared war against the United states government, with a bombing campaign against government buildings. Heady Times. Breaking Timothy Leary out of prison. "For the times they are a changing".

      It's an old trope from when folk singers used to sing exclusively with crisp, clear tenor voices and lots of treble. Remember, Joan Baez and Peter, Paul and Mary were at the vanguard of this early 1960s folk movement. Dylan was not a trained vocalist, which was the fashion of the time.

      Eammon Wright: This discussion I've had before. And I took your side. The woman I spoke with didn't hear it that way, and I tried several tracks. Even gave Blondie's 'Rapture' a shot but to no avail. She was young -- and as can be the case -- enamored with her generation's contribution and unwilling to concede innovation to anyone else, not even a helping hand, not even Bible could do it -- There's no 'new thing' under the sun. Wouldn't hear it. Carrot Top to her invented standup comedy.

      It's not rap. It is folk. Hear the guitar and harmonica. You don't get guitar and harmonica with rap. This tune seems to have more of a bubblegum sound rather than rap. Do you hear the easy flow of the words. While conveying a message, this song doesn't seem as confrontational or intimidating as rap would be. The nice guy in the video is throwing his cards easily, and not beating someone over the head with them. Another thing, rap, along with hip hop, are predominantly a part of African American culture. Mr. Dylan, I believe was a white dude.

Not only is he using Electric guitar to sing folk music, not only is he protesting in his lyrics, not only is he inventing the music video but he's also singing talking blues (aka Rhythm and Poetry) (aka Rap) he's inventing rapping as we know it. In 1965!

      it's just recording north american foklore in real time, which is very rare to be done this good, which is sad. there is this kind of lament about the horrible life lived by people while working out the similitudes and the metaphores that reach into *your* soul in every culture around the world, and they all change over time but the really good ones, the great ones that make themselves known and reknown, read, reread and retold, over time, those always find a way to keep telling their story over time. i'm sure you all know the great ones of your countires - mine are Violeta, Patricio, Víctor and so many, many more - especially in comedy! So many find a way to make their ideas resonate with others through the dark process of making you laugh at any price!

They, their TV show, and Mike's solo career are what started the MTV style video. Although there were earlier, this was a new type entirely, a new breed. In fact, Mike made a show, sold it to Warner, who made it a TV channel. That show-turned-channel was MTV itself.
