6. It Ain't Me, Babe
(Another Side Of... , 1964)
She wants Bob. Is she crazy or sumpin?
Tom McRae: "This is no gentle let-down to a former lover... it's virtually a health warning. 'Go away from my window and leave at your own chosen speed,' he sings in a lilting voice, when what he actually means is 'I'm an asshole, you better run'. I defy any lyricist to listen to Dylan and not feel like auctioning his typewriter on eBay and heading to South America to open a bar... the sheer joy in the manipulation of words, the oblique rhymes, the savage intent and remorseless honesty. The f___er said it all."
