Bob_Dylan_-_Highway_61_Revisited.jpg

Ah, you've been with the professors and they've all liked your looks
With great lawyers you have discussed lepers and crooks
You've been through all of F. Scott Fitzgerald's books
You're very well-read, it's well-known

He never did clear up who that song was about, did he?

I mean specifically though...not that it really matters.  

Jeffrey Jones, Rolling Stone, claims it is about him, but,  "there were a lot of Mister Joneses at that time. Obviously there must have been a tremendous amount of them for me to write that particular song'' (Dylan, 1990).

I like Dylan, he's one of my favourite people...but that cryptic shit can get a bit tiresome sometimes.  Ever tried reading his autobiography?  I found it a trial.  Much like George Harrisons.  Then again I suppose a life lived in an industry as exploitative as the music industry, and at the level Dylan was at, its probably a necessity.
