Lyrics
0:06Oh God said to Abraham kill me a son
0:10Abe says man you must be puttin' me on
0:13God say no Abe say what
0:16God say you can do what you want Abe but
0:19The next time you see me comin' you better run
0:28Well
0:29Abe says where do you want this killin' done
0:32God says out on highway 61
0:41Well
0:41Georgia Sam he had a bloody nose
0:44Welfare department wouldn't give him no clothes
0:47He asked poor Howard but where can I go
0:50Howard said here's only one place I know
0:54Sam said tell me quick man I got to run
1:03Oh Howard just pointed all the way with his gun
1:06That way down on highway 61
1:15Well
1:16Mack the finger said to Louie the king
1:18Got forty red white and blue shoe strings
1:21And a thousand telephones that don't ring
1:25Do you know where I can get rid of these things
1:28Louie the king said let me think for a minute son
1:37Then he said yes I think it could be easily done
1:40Just take everything down to highway 61
1:49Now the fifth daughter on the twelfth night
1:52Told the first father that things weren't right
1:55Complexion she said is much too white
1:59He said come here
2:00Step into the light he says mm you're right
2:04Let me tell second mother this has been done
2:11But the second mother was with the seventh son
2:15And they were both out on highway 61
2:24Well
2:24Rowin' gambler he was very bored
2:27He was tryin' to create a next world war
2:30He found a promoter and nearly fell off the floor
2:33He said
2:33I never engaged in this kind of thing before
2:36But yes I think it can be very easily done
2:45We'll just put some bleachers out in the sun
2:49Have it out on highway 61
Oh God said to Abraham kill me a son Abe says man you must be puttin' me on God say no Abe say what God say you can do what you want Abe but The next time you see me comin' you better run Well Abe says where do you want this killin' done God says out on highway 61 Well Georgia Sam he had a bloody nose Welfare department wouldn't give him no clothes He asked poor Howard but where can I go Howard said here's only one place I know Sam said tell me quick man I got to run Oh Howard just pointed all the way with his gun That way down on highway 61 Well Mack the finger said to Louie the king Got forty red white and blue shoe strings And a thousand telephones that don't ring Do you know where I can get rid of these things Louie the king said let me think for a minute son Then he said yes I think it could be easily done Just take everything down to highway 61 Now the fifth daughter on the twelfth night Told the first father that things weren't right Complexion she said is much too white He said come here Step into the light he says mm you're right Let me tell second mother this has been done But the second mother was with the seventh son And they were both out on highway 61 Well Rowin' gambler he was very bored He was tryin' to create a next world war He found a promoter and nearly fell off the floor He said I never engaged in this kind of thing before But yes I think it can be very easily done We'll just put some bleachers out in the sun Have it out on highway 61
