Oh, God said to Abraham, "Kill me a son"   Abe says, "Man, you must be putting me on"   God say, "No," Abe say, "What?"   God say, "You can do what you want Abe, but   The next time you see me coming you better run"   Well Abe says, "Where do you want this killing done?"   God says, "Out on Highway 61"      Well, Georgia Sam he had a bloody nose   Welfare Department they wouldn't give him no clothes   He asked poor Howard, "Where can I go?"   Howard said, "There's only one place I know"   Sam said, "Tell me quick, man, I got to run"   Ol' Howard just pointed with his gun   And said, "That way, down on Highway 61"      Well, Mack the Finger said to Louie the King   "I got forty red white and blue shoe strings   And a thousand telephones that don't ring   Do you know where I can get rid of these things?"   And Louie the King said, "Let me think for a minute, son"   And he said, "Yes, I think it can be easily done   Just take everything down to Highway 61"      Now the fifth daughter on the twelfth night   Told the first father that things weren't right   "My complexion," she said, "is much too white"   He said, "Come here and step into the light"    He says, "Hm, you're right   Let me tell the second mother this has been done"   But the second mother was with the seventh son   And they were both out on Highway 61      Now the roving gambler he was very bored   He was tryin'g to create a next world war   He found a promoter who nearly fell off the floor   He said, "I never engaged in this kind of thing before   But yes, I think it can be very easily done   We'll just put some bleachers out in the sun   And have it on Highway 61"
