Johnny's in the basement
Mixing up the medicine
I'm on the pavement
Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat
Badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough
Wants to get it paid off
Look out kid
It's somethin' you did
God knows when
But you're doing it again
You better duck down the alley way
Lookin' for a new friend
A man in the coonskin cap, in the pig pen
Wants eleven dollar bills, you only got ten
Maggie comes fleet foot
Face full of black soot
Talkin' that the heat put
Plants in the bed but
The phone's tapped anyway
Maggie says that many say
They must bust in early May
Orders from the D.A. Look out kid
Don't matter what you did
Walk on your tip toes
Don't tie no bows
Better stay away from those
That carry around a fire hose
Keep a clean nose
Watch the plain clothes
You don't need a weather man
To know which way the wind blows
Oh, get sick, get well
Hang around a ink well
Hang bail, hard to tell
If anything is goin' to sell
Try hard, get barred
Get back, write braille
Get jailed, jump bail
Join the army, if you fail
Look out kid
You're gonna get hit
But losers, cheaters
Six-time users
Hang around the theaters
Girl by the whirlpool
Lookin' for a new fool
Don't follow leaders, watch the parkin' meters
Oh, get born, keep warm
Short pants, romance
Learn to dance, get dressed, get blessed
Try to be a success
Please her, please him, buy gifts
Don't steal, don't lift
Twenty years of schoolin'
And they put you on the day shift
Look out kid
They keep it all hid
Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a candle
Don't wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals
Don't want to be a bum
You better chew gum
The pump don't work
'Cause the vandals took the handles

Eammon Wright: This discussion I've had before. And I took your side. The woman I spoke with didn't hear it that way, and I tried several tracks. Even gave Blondie's 'Rapture' a shot but to no avail. She was young -- and as can be the case -- enamored with her generation's contribution and unwilling to concede innovation to anyone else, not even a helping hand, not even Bible could do it -- There's no 'new thing' under the sun. Wouldn't hear it. Carrot Top to her invented standup comedy.

It's not rap. It is folk. Hear the guitar and harmonica. You don't get guitar and harmonica with rap. This tune seems to have more of a bubblegum sound rather than rap. Do you hear the easy flow of the words. While conveying a message, this song doesn't seem as confrontational or intimidating as rap would be. The nice guy in the video is throwing his cards easily, and not beating someone over the head with them. Another thing, rap, along with hip hop, are predominantly a part of African American culture. Mr. Dylan, I believe was a white dude.

@keithwilliams9902

It's clever on a couple of points. Remember, the time frame this song was written was late 1960's. A militant, left wing radical organization known as the Weather Underground , also know as Weathermen formed on the U Michigan Ann Arbor campus, as a faction of Students for Democratic Society or SDS. So Dylan is saying that you don't need a radical, like a Weatherman to tell you what is going on (which way the wind blows). He is also saying that you don't need a tv weather person to tell you which way the wind is blowing. Revolution was in the air, (the way the wind blows), Viet Nam protests, the Weather underground actually declared war against the United states government, with a bombing campaign against government buildings. Heady Times. Breaking Timothy Leary out of prison. "For the times they are a changing".

With regard to your Bob Dylan comments - the 'video' was actually the opening sequence to the 'biopic' filmed on Dylan's tour to Great Britain in 1965 by DA Pennabaker. The captions I think were created by Dylan's friend Bobby Neuerwith (?) who can be seen throughout the whole film - also on the cover (half of him !) of Highway 61 Revisited. The bearded gentleman in the background who walks away at the end is Allen Ginsberg the 'Beat' poet.

This is the song!

I had a good family friend born in '49 who turned me onto Dylan when I was a 16 year old in '88. He was playing his greatest hits tape with this song and others really captivating me. I took most of the money I made doing drywall with him to buy Bob's entire catalog. As I get older and have to say goodbye to people I loved, I find an everlasting connection by continuing to enjoy the things we once shared together. Sorry about your pops.

You could also watch the whole thing because this 'video' is the opening sequence to the DA Pennabaker 'biopic' film Don't Look Back filmed when Dylan toured Britain in 1965. Another lesser-known Dylan track which is spine-tingling is Let Me Die In My Footsteps from 1963 which was omitted from the Freewheelin' album although personally I think it's superior to some of the other tracks on that album.

Emily, He didn't mess up, he does that stuff on purpose. It's the mark of an
artistic genius to allow discordancy's. Even without the music and the poetry, the
message is 100% accurate, timely and vital as it was back then, at the height of
the hippy revolution. 'Must bust in early May, orders from the DA.' (Our prisons
still bursting.) 'They go out and round up anyone that knows more than they do!'
(Idiot cops would bust their grandma as long as they get their paycheck, to this
day.)

This is actually a crazy song when you interpret each lyric thoroughly. What makes this song more amazing was that before 1965, Dylan protested using Folk music. At this time he was protesting using Rock music. A complete change in sound without losing the “protest” attitude. Incredible.

After watching this video approximately 5,789 times I am for the first time realizing the magnitude of Dylan's role in modern music. Look at that face. He is little more than a teenager and he didn't just write and perform this song and this video (with Allen Ginsberg as a backdrop, no less) which alone could make a person famous . Plus or minus a year from Subterranian Homesick Blues he wrote some of the most innovative and paradigm changing music in the modern era and continued writing and performing great music for decades. It is dumbfounding.

Yessir! Good eye! I noticed Allen Ginsburg too and just appreciated the impact of the great poets, wordsmiths, performance artist maestro two being synchronized so early in Dylan's career is testimony to his peerless powerful lyrics which Subterranean Homesick Blues is of the best example. Only our finest poets wrote such beautiful poetry, much less with so much universal appeal, relevant poignancy, and still coupled with Woody Guthrie's, mastery of voice/harmonica/guitar too! Few, if any like Dylan, Woody, of course, but the finest - before or since.
