Newport Folk Festival 1965, Newport RI - 25 july 1965 Highway 61 Revisited session 3, Columbia Studio A - 29.jul.1965, take 4, album version Well i ride on the mail train, babe Can't buy a thrill Well i been up all night Leanin' on the window sill Well if i die On top of the hill An' if i don't make it You know my baby will. Don't the moon look good, mama Shinin' through the trees? Don't the brakeman look good, mama Flaggin' down the double E? Don't the sun look good Goin' down over the sea? But don't my gal look fine When she's comin' after me? Now the winter time is comin' The windows are filled with frost I went to tell everybody But i could not get across Well i wanna be your lover, baby I don't wanna be your boss Don't say i never warned you When your train gets lost. |

Well i ride on a mail train, baby Can't buy no thrill I been up all night, baby Leanin' on the window sill Well if i die On top of this hill And if i don't make it You know my baby will.
