Congrats To Mr. Dylan:
Lyrics: Girl From The North Country
“If you’re travelin’ in the north country fair
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline
Remember me to one who lives there
She once was a true love of mine
If you go when the snowflakes storm
When the rivers freeze and summer ends
Please see if she’s wearing a coat so warm
To keep her from the howlin’ winds
Please see for me if her hair hangs long
If it rolls and flows all down her breast
Please see for me if her hair hangs long”
Could it be it was a tribute to his home state, MI?
His home state is MN not MI
Minnesota not Michigan
but yes, he certainly did know the “north country” from his youth
