If it was written by a sixteen your old on paper to help him learn the song to play it, I don't think it's plagiarism. The auction house may have been misleading as to what this was, unless Dylan himself claimed it was his song.

I commit lyrics to memory by writing them down, Repeatedly!! It works for me. I guess that would make me a plaguarist (sp) too!!
Why didn’t someone do a Simon Cowl on Dylan...

The bombshell came just 24 hours after the original handwritten version of Little Buddy was put up for auction by Christie's. And less than 24 hours after Dylan turned 68.
Yesterday, May 24, was his birthday.

Lol. Even if he did claim to write it when he was 16, is that supposed to dismiss or taint all the song writing he did as an adult? Lol. Maybe this should be in breaking news? Lol.
