Highway 61 Revisited
Karen O

Oh, God said to Abraham, Kill me a son
Abe say, Man, you must be puttin' me on
God say, No, Abe say, What?
God say, You can do what you want, Abe, but
Next time you see me comin', you better run

Well, Abe said, Where do you want this killin' done?
God said, Out on Highway 61

Well, Georgia Sam, he had a bloody nose
Welfare Department, they wouldn't give him no clothes
He asked poor Howard, Where can I go?
Howard said, There's only one place I know
And Sam said, Tell me quick, man, I got to run

0h, Howard just pointed with his gun
And said, That way, down on Highway 61

Well, Mack the Finger said to Louie the King
I 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?
And Louie the King said, Let me think for a minute, son

And he said, Yes, I think this could be easily done
Just take everything down onto Highway 61

Now, the fifth daughter on the twelfth night
Told the first father that things weren't right
My complexion, she said, is much too white
He said, Come here and step into the light he says, Hmm, you're right
Let me tell the second mother this has been done

But the second mother was with the seventh son
And they were both out on Highway 61

Well, the rovin' gambler, he was very bored
He was tryin' to create the next world war
He found a promoter who 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
And have it out on Highway 61
