I’ll probably get flamed big time for this, but I’ve always felt Dylan is the most overated singer/writer in modern times. However ...this line,
“Yes, I wish that for just one time, you could stand inside my shoes.
You’d know what a drag it is to see you.”
has to be THE line that always brings a smile/smirk to my face. :)

Thanks, Dartman. No flaming here ... there are a lot of folks who agree with you on that.

What's great about that line is that the whole song "Positively 4th Street" was written by Dylan as a "screw you" anthem to the group of Marxist hippies he used to hang out with in the East Village of New York City.

He's never been highly rated as a singer but as a writer - well, who would you rate higher?
