Bob Dylan & Joan Baez Duet: Deportees, Fort Collins, Colorado 23 May 1976





The crops are all in and the peaches are rott’ning,
The oranges piled in their creosote dumps;
They’re flying ’em back to the Mexican border
To pay all their money to wade back again


…. a numinious ‘Deportees’—the best duet Joan Baez ever managed with Dylan.

Bob Dylan’s Best Songs: The Times They Are A-Changin’





Come gather ’round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You’ll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you is worth savin’
Then you better start swimmin’ or you’ll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin’

The message isn’t in the words, …. I don’t do anything with a sort of message.
I’m just transferring my thoughts into music. Nobody can give you a message like that.
~Bob Dylan (to Ray Coleman, May 1965)
