Bob Dylan - highway 61 revisited

노래는 아브라함이 하나님과의 대화에서 아들의 희생을 언급하며 시작된다
이어서 여러 캐릭터들이 각자의 걱정과 사정을 이야기하고, 궁극적으로 '하이웨이 61'이라는 장소로 모여 문제를 해결하려고 한다
이 길은 그들에게 중요한 결정을 내리는 상징적인 공간이 된다

Oh, God said to Abraham, "Kill me a son"
Abe said, "Man, you must be puttin' me on"
God say, "No."
Abe say, "What?"
God say, "You can do what you want, Abe, but
The next time you see me comin' you better run"
Well, Abe said, "Where you want this killin' done?"
God said, "Out on Highway 61"
Well, Georgia Sam, he had a bloody nose
Welfare Department, they wouldn’t give him no clothes
He asked poor Howard, "Where can I go?"
Howard said, "There’s only one place I know"
Sam said, "Tell me quick, man, I got to run"
Oh, Howard just pointed with his gun
And said, "That way, down Highway 61"
Well, Mack the Finger said to Louie the King
"I got forty red, white, and blue shoestrings
And a thousand telephones that don’t ring
Do you know where I can get rid of these things?"
And Louie the King said, "Let me think for a minute, son"
And he said, "Yes, I think it can be easily done!
Just take everything down to Highway 61"
