You need to hear the actual recording. The lyrics by themselves are interesting, but a little flat. Throw in the "psychedelic" guitar licks, etc, and it's one of the better- even if now mostly forgotten- gems from the era. At one time it was fun to sit around the hookah and debate the "inner meaning" of tunes like this. I can't seem to remember whether Martha Lorraine was popularly assumed to be about peyote, hashish, LSD, or the Selective Service System/FEDGOV- (good arguments for all). I still remember how suprised a lot of folks were to realize that Mr Tambourine Man was about a dope dealer. Dylan was always easier to figure out than Joe McDonald :-) I suppose if you are sitting around doing drugs, a lot of songs sound like they are "dealing" drugs. Not all of us were Day Trippers.- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - So, are you disputing the double entendre of "Not so Sweet", or "Mr. Tambourine Man"? I once met somebody who still insists that Peter Paul and Mary were singing about a wind up flying reptile......... We all lived in a yellow submarine. refresher: (and for the very few who have only heard the 2-verse pop-40 version) http://youtube.com/watch?v=mMlFjssShz0 Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you. Though I know that evenin's empire has returned into sand, Vanished from my hand, Left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping. My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet, I have no one to meet And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you. Take me on a trip upon your magic swirlin' ship, My senses have been stripped, my hands can't feel to grip, My toes too numb to step, wait only for my boot heels To be wanderin'. I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade Into my own parade, cast your dancing spell my way, I promise to go under it. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you. Though you might hear laughin', spinnin', swingin' madly across the sun, It's not aimed at anyone, it's just escapin' on the run And but for the sky there are no fences facin'. And if you hear vague traces of skippin' reels of rhyme To your tambourine in time, it's just a ragged clown behind, I wouldn't pay it any mind, it's just a shadow you're Seein' that he's chasing. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you. Then take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind, Down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves, The haunted, frightened trees, out to the windy beach, Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow. Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free, Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands, With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves, Let me forget about today until tomorrow. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to. Hey! Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me, In the jingle jangle morning I'll come followin' you.- http://youtube.com/watch?v=XRbeUnn-AUA |
