Radio Spot for January 1980, Portland, OR show Lyrics
Lyrics
Bob Dylan is taking a slow train to Portland
His concert is January 10th 8 p.m. at The Paramount
I was kinda disapointed, I wanted to hear Rock n Roll, Rock n Roll
I heard Bob Dylan singing gospel
I didn't come here to hear surmons I could've went to church, man
I want the old Bob Dylan, the one I know and love and that wasn't him
No, I think the message is the same what he sang about before
It's just more focussed
I mean, people used to have to wonder 'bout what he was saying
Now it's clear what he's saying
Hey, he sounded great, the band was fun
The scripture say to preach the gospel to the Gentiles, the kings and the children of Isreal
And that's just what he's doing
Decide for yourself, Bob Dylan in concerts January tenth at The Paramount
Seating for the special event is reserved only
Tickets on sale now at Myer flag downtown and all the usual Paramount outlets
