I want you so bad
Sometimes. Other times I want
To do other things.
This is a song from 1962 that was left off "The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan." It surfaced in the "Biograph" anthology in 1985, and there are two takes on the hard-to-find "The 50th Anniversary Collection" copyright extension album. I don't know whether one of those two takes is the one on "Biograph."
The situation is pretty simple: There are a number of things that Bob finds himself in the mood for, but then again, as he says, sometimes he's in the mood for you.
Here is the unexpurgated list of things for which Bob is in the mood at one time or another:
- Leave lonesome home
- Hear milk cow moan
- Hit highway road
- You
- Overflowin’ fill
- Final will
- Walkin’ hill
- You
- Lay down, die
- Climb up to sky
- Laugh until cry
- You
- Sleep in pony’s stall
- Nothin’ at all
- Fly like cannonball
- You
- Back up against wall
- Run till have to crawl
- Nothin’ at all
- You
- Change house around
- Change this here town
- Change world around
- You
