This song has haunted my life since 1974. If you listen to it and think about the words, it drives you slightly crazy because it does not follow any logical sequence. You look at the idiot singing it, with the sweated-out white face and the intensity, you realize that he was crazy then too and could probably never explain it. Baez's book about the time makes him look even more crazy. Somehow, this insane song defines my life. We just have to figure out how.
