So - okay, this is a Bob Dylan song, but he paraphrased some words I can remember my mother reciting to me whimsically when I was a little kid in the late fifties: "I'll eat when I'm hungry. I'll drink when I'm dry. And if a tree don't fall on me, I'll live 'till I die."

Now - to quote my favorite Portland band, Dirty Martini: "It's only music... and all you are... is a song..."

Sorry but this song predates Dylan. He did do a version of it in 63 (I think) but its a traditional folk song.

Here is a wikipedia link.

Why can't Jay and Jeff get back together for a reunion tour? Is that too unreasonable to ask for? God I'd love that.

The true masters of alternative country... this song sounds like The Sex Pistols...

too bad they started fighting with each other and broke up...

my father was born in Tupelo, Mississippi...

Lame... You can't take back a Dylan song like this... You're just killing the idea of singing your life away.

Very bad.

Like American Budweiser, popular in the US, err, not quite so popular elsewhere.
Budweiser is no longer a North American company. Our craft beer capabilities, however, are the best on the globe - with Portland Oregon at the epicenter . At least according to the late expert Michael Jackson (no, not that one).

Best you should investigate this matter in person.

I´ve just seen the tapes...amazing talent, mind you defenders back in those days were hefty lumps, but he was not only nimble, he had strength to make those darting, swerving runs in all that mud and with those medicine balls they used to play with.

Just don't like songs about alcoholism. Even less when they try to glorify or romanticize the disease.
