Well God said to Abraham
Kill me a son
Abe said
Man you must be putting me on
God said No
Abe said What
God said You do what you want to
Abe but
The next time you see me
coming you'd better run
Abe said Where do you want
this killing done
God said Out on that Highway 61
Well Georgia Sam
he had a bloody nose
Welfare department would give
him no clothes
He asked poor Howard
Where can I go
Howard said
There's only one place I know
Sam said Quick man tell me I got to run
Howard just pointed with his gun
He said that way down on 61
Well Mack the finger
said Louie the King
I got 40 red white
and blue shoe strings
And a thousand telephones
that won't ring
You know where I can
get rid of these things
And he said
Now let me think for a minute son
Said Yes that can be easily done
Just take them down on that 61
That highway
Highway
Highway
Highway
Highway
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 stare up into the light
And said Mmm you're right
Let me tell the second mother
it's been done
But the second mother
with the seventh son
They were out on that highway 61
Now the roving gambler
was very bored
Trying to create the next world war
And he found a promoter
fell on the floor
And said I've never engaged
in this kind of thing before
But yep I think it can be easily done
Highway
We'll just put some bleachers
there out in the sun
Have it out on that 61
