Bob Dylan – "Maggie's Farm" (1965)

She’s 68

But she says she’s 54

My 69th birthday is tomorrow, so this is my last chance to feature “Maggie’s Farm.”

Like Maggie, I’m 68.  Unlike Maggie, I don’t claim to be 54.  (The last time I claimed to be 54 was in 2006-2007, when I really was 54.)

“Maggie’s Farm” was released in 1965 on Bob Dylan’s fifth studio album, Bringing It All Back Home:  

It included several of Dylan’s best songs, including “Subterranean Homesick Blues,” “It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue,” and “It’s Alright Ma (I’m Only Bleeding)” – which may rank second to only “Like a Rolling Stone” in the Dylan oeuvre.  (“Tambourine Man” is really lame, but no one’s perfect.)
