Daddy's Going on One More Ride

Can someone tell me whether "Daddy's Going on One More Ride" is really the name of the supposedly Shel Silverstein-penned song that Bob Dylan performed either at a rehearsal or a soundtrack or in concert sometime in 1978? Here is my problem:

Daddy's Going on One More Ride:

I can't find words to
Shel Silverstein's obscure song.
Is it even real?

Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum

Tweedle Dum and Dee:
Not exactly best of friends
As the world ends...

Never Gonna Be the Same Again

She changed Bob for good.
Seems like he might have screwed up.
Now he bitches, moans.

Rainy Day Women #12 & 35

You all must smoke pot
No matter what you do. Bob
takes his own advice.

Hallelujah

Leonard Cohen finds
The secret chord. Bob and friends
Play it constantly.

Baby Stop Cryin'

Some asshole hurt you.
Bob will love you. Go to him,
But please be quiet.

What Can I Do for You?

God, since you've saved Bob,
He wants to give something back.
What can he get you?

I Walk the Line

Being a lover
Don't just mean smoochin'. It means
Walking what you talk.

Dink's Song

A mishmash of blues.
It might be short, but Bob tries
Every tired cliche.

Beyond Here Lies Nothin'

This love will be ours
After all this time searching.
What's past is prologue!

Honey Just Allow Me One More Chance

Bob begs for his girl.
He tries some slippery rhymes.
Who knows? It might work.

Branded Man

When you're an ex-con,
Nobody will let you forget.
That sure sucks, don't it?

Blue Suede Shoes

Who knew Bob Dylan
Had a pair of blue suede shoes?
Don't step on them, pal.

Angel Flying Too Close to the Ground

Getting ditched is bad.
Write a hit song about it
And then feel better.

Ball and Biscuit

Bob and pal Jack White
Ask a girl to fool around
And then grab a bite.

Baby Please Don't Go

New Orleans: You know
It's a place where Bob doesn't
Want you to go, babe.

Ain't Gonna Grieve

Bob suggests talking
Your way out of depression;
A lot of talking

Stepchild

Bob says you treat him
Like your stepchild. How unfair,
When he loves you so!

Let's Keep It Between Us

We might have trouble,
But don't you think that's *our* thing?
Hon, let's be discreet.

With God on Our Side

Folks say God helps them.
Bob sees the fallacy here,
Yet asks him favors.
