I’ve been listening to you
For so long now
And you’ve learnt
More than I could ever know.
Hey, Bob Dylan,
I tried to write you a song,
Like you did
For Woody Guthrie too.
I’ve tried to be like you,
Went to a party
Dressed like you
But I could never compare.
Hey, Bob Dylan,
I tried to write you a song,
Like you did
For Woody Guthrie too.
There’s no one quite the same,
As the Jokerman,
The Poet and the Rebel,
Guess you’re a one-of-a-kind man.
Hey, Bob Dylan,
I tried to write you a song,
Like you did
For Woody Guthrie too.
