Well, the comic book and me, just us, we caught the bus

The poor little chauffeur, though, she was back in bed

On the very next day, with a nose full of pus
D C
Yea! Heavy and a bottle of bread
D C
Yea! Heavy and a bottle of bread
D C
Yea! Heavy and a bottle of bread
It's a one-track town, just brown, and a breeze, too,
Pack up the meat, sweet, we're headin' out
For Wichita in a pile of fruit
Get the loot, don't be slow, we're gonna catch a trout
Get the loot, don't be slow, we're gonna catch a trout
Get the loot, don't be slow, we're gonna catch a trout
Now, pull that drummer out from behind that bottle
Bring me my pipe, we're gonna shake it
Slap that drummer with a pie that smells
Take me down to California, baby
Take me down to California, baby
Take me down to California, baby
Yes, the comic book and me, just us, we caught the bus
The poor little chauffeur, though, she was back in bed
On the very next day, with a nose full of pus
Yea! Heavy and a bottle of bread
Yea! Heavy and a bottle of bread
Yea! Heavy and a bottle of bread

The songs were recorded live on a home tape recorder in the basement of a house called Big Pink, in West Saugerties, New York. Some of the recordings were bootlegged in the late '60s, but to many fans they were just a rumor until this official version came out in 1975. To emphasize Dylan's startling fecundity and In 1967 Dylan was recovering from his much publicized motorcycle crash, and with backing from the fledgling Band, he laid down dozens of rudimentary demo recordings. Eventually gaining an official release eight years later (with several delightful songs from a later Band session added), THE BASEMENT TAPES was a ragbag collection of alternately playful and serious acoustic songs that drew on a deep well of American tradition for their inspiration. Songs of the caliber of "Tears Of Rage", "Too Much Of Nothing", "Nothing Was Delivered" and "This Wheel's On Fire" only served importance as a songwriter.
