Tangled Up In Blue
... 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 ...

And every one of them words rang true
And glowed like burnin’ coal
Pourin’ off of every page ...

There was music in the cafés at night
And revolution in the air
Then he started into dealing with slaves
And something inside of him died ...

We always did feel the same
We just saw it from a different point of view ...

He's a national treasure.

A tough, durable, principled man.
