Oct 19, 2016 · The Lyrics: 1961-2012. Oct 19, 2016. Order from Amazon. Out now: A beautiful, comprehensive volume of Dylan’s lyrics, from the beginning of his career through the present day—with the songwriter’s edits to dozens of songs, appearing here for the first time.
- “Mama, You Been on My Mind” (Another Side of Bob Dylan outtake, recorded 1964) When you wake up in the mornin’, baby, look inside your mirror. You know I won’t be next to you, you know I won’t be near.
- “It’s Alright Ma, (I’m Only Bleeding)” (Bringing It All Back Home, 1965) Pointed threats, they bluff with scorn. Suicide remarks are torn. From the fool’s gold mouthpiece the hollow horn.
- “She Belongs to Me” (Bringing It All Back Home, 1965) She wears an Egyptian ring. That sparkles before she speaks. She’s a hypnotist collector. You are a walking antique.
- “Like a Rolling Stone” (Highway 61 Revisited, 1965) You say you never compromise. With the mystery tramp, but now you realize. He’s not selling any alibis. As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes.

“Walkin’ a road other men have gone down / I’m seeing your world of people and things / Your paupers and peasants and princes and kings.” By far and away the easiest choice on this list owing to the fact that his debut only featured two original songs amidst a slew of old folk standards. That being said his early stylings were already in place and ...
“Half of the people can be part right all of the time / Some of the people can be all right part of the time / But all of the people can’t be all right all of the time / I think Abraham Lincoln said that / “I’ll let you be in my dreams if I can be in yours” / I said that” Only a year on from that debut, at 22-years-old, Dylan was already arriving a...
“Oh, but if I had the stars from the darkest night / And the diamonds from the deepest ocean / I’d forsake them all for your sweet kiss / For that’s all I’m wishin’ to be ownin’.” When he’s not prying at the fabric of society and the human soul, he is busy examining his own. This particular verse delves into that old classic notion of forsaking all...
“The Flowers of the city, / Though breathlike, get deathlike at times.” Continuing the tradition of working his name into all his early album titles, Bob cooks up another gem in a truly prolific period. This single couplet captures both beauty and the pains of its parting. It’s the sort of line that belongs to Baudelaire or some other such gritty p...
“Don’t steal, don’t lift / Twenty years of schoolin’ / And They put you on the day shift.” Although Dylan would probably tell you that the best lines from this record are in that verse of ‘It’s Alright Ma’ about the “child’s balloon, the silver spoon, the sun and moon”, but they’re not all that clear to a layman. Whether that simply makes them a cu...
“How does it feel / How does it feel / To be on your own / With no direction home / Like a complete unknown / Like a rolling stone?” All of his previous records had peaked a lot higher in the UK than they had on his star-spangled home soil, but this one rose to number three and, in many ways, it is fitting that it now resides in the music conscious...
“But when we meet again, introduced as friends / please don’t let on that you knew me when / I was hungry and it was your world.” As is already clear from all the above, Dylan was operating on a different level in the ‘60s. A matter of months after landing the ultimate American record he arrives with not only one of the finest break-up albums but o...
“There must be some kind of way outta here / Said the joker to the thief […] No reason to get excited / the thief, he kindly spoke / There are many here among us / Who feel that life is but a joke / But, uh, but you and I, we’ve been through that / And this is not our fate / So let us stop talkin’ falsely now / The hour’s getting late, hey.” They’r...
“Love and only love, it can’t be denied” A year off represented a lengthy break for Bob by his ‘60s standards. He was worn out, but when he returned it was with one of his best. Nick Cave said if he could have written any song it would be this and that’s good enough to put it on any lyrical list. The message of the song is daringly simple but as th...
“Come all without, come all within / You’ll not seen nothing like the mighty Quinn.” It was a critical flop that came just as Bob was getting tired of it all. Though the record comprises mostly of covers and strange compositions, this song (perhaps best known by the Manfred Mann version) incredibly managed to be commandeered not only for a Denzel W...
