"Early one mornin' the sun was shinin',
I was layin' in bed
Wond'rin' if she'd changed at all
If her hair was still red.
Her folks they said our lives together
Sure was gonna be rough
They never did like Mama's homemade dress
Papa's bankbook wasn't big enough.
And I was standin' on the side of the road
Rain fallin' on my shoes
Heading out for the East Coast
Lord knows I've paid some dues gettin' through,
Tangled up in blue.
"

here are two i'm guessing you may never have heard...

from 'the genuine basement tapes' boot, a song called "i am a teenage prayer"

take a look at me, baby
i'm your teenage prayer (hair)

when it's cloudy all the time
all you gotta do is say you're mine
i'll come running anywhere

take a look at me, baby
i'm your teenage dream (scheme)


.... or one called "repossession blues", from the boot 'darkness at the break of noon' ...

well i ain't got no money
i'm gonna lose everything i own
you know a man's coming out this morning
they want to repossess my home

well they took my television
now they're coming for my radio
well they took my television
now they're coming for my radio
they don't like the way i'm doing
they say i pay my bills too slow

i paid 20 dollars down
i bought a new chevrolet belair
i paid 20 dollars down
i bought a new chevrolet belair
but the man came out and got it
and now i got to walk everywhere


imo, the boots are some of the very best dylan music ever. you get to hear the man raw as raw can be, with totally unheard of arrangements, laughing, cutting up, making mistakes, ending in the middle or restarting three times in a row, session outtakes and alternate versions. if ya got any dylan boots, ya got something special.
