No worries, your loss pal @NewKillerStar haha, yeah. prehaps his voice isnt the same anymore eh? But thats the charm of Dylan..His whole life he tried to emulate the voice of a wise man who was worth a million. Now he truly is

I think you're the one who misunderstood it. Not only is it about drugs, it was recorded in the middle of the night after a wild party, with all of Dylan's band stoned out of their minds (but not Dylan; the bugger had planned everything including the party all along). Moreover, the line "everybody must get stoned" is a dead giveaway. It is true that the song is on two levels, though.

Oh no,thats correct, Dylan did get the Hawks(Who would later become "The Band") stoned and switched their instruments to produce that raw funny type sound. Now, this is straight from Dylan's mouth, the line everyone must get stoned, was a paordy of the current psychedelic era, Like you said, the song is on two levels, but prehaps the true one is the scorn of women, the more playful one is, turning onto drugs. Actually, funnily enough, Dylan was the one who introduced Marijuana to the Beatles! But as Dylan once said "I've never written a song about Drugs" then again..He's also said "I've only written about three songs in my life...It just happens that I write the same three over and over again.." :p.

If there's one thing I've learned over the years, it is that the most UNRELIABLE source of information on Bob Dylan is...Bob Dylan. He hates interviewers. Bruce Springsteen might give him a run for his money when it comes to being unreliable, though...I have about 50 concert-recordings of him , and on nearly every single one he gives a different account of how he met Clarence (Clemmons), each more out-there than the other.
