Lyrics
[Verse 1] 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 can do what you want, Abe, but, the Next time you see me coming, you better run!" Well, Abe said, "Where you want this killing done?" God said, "Out on Highway 61" [Verse 2] Georgia Sam, he had a bloody nose Welfare department wouldn't give him no clothes He asked poor Howard, "Where can I go?" Howard said, "There's only one place I know" He said, "Tell me quick, man, I got to run!" Oh, Howard just pointed off with his gun "Down that way, down Highway 61" [Verse 3] Mack the Finger said to Louie the King: "I got forty rеd, white, and blue shoestrings, and A thousand tеlephones that don't ring Do you know where I can possibly get rid of these things?" And he said, "Let me think for a minute, son Yes, I think it can be easily done! Take it on down to Highway 61" [Verse 4] The fifth daughter on the twelfth night Told the first father that things weren't right "My complexion," she says, "Is much too white" "Come on over here, girl, and step into the light" He said, "You're right! Now tell Mama this has been done" But the first mother was with the seventh son And they were both out on Highway 61 [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 5] Well, the roving gambler, he was very bored Tried to create a next world war Found a promoter who nearly fell on the floor He said, "Never did engage in this kinda 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 on Highway 61" [Outro] Thank you!
