Were these lyrics really ever sung? They look like someone took the actually recorded line, "Pack up your bags, put up your tent, McGuinn," and made up a version that doesn't scan.
"Pack up your mind, put up your tent in the wind"
You Ain't Goin' Nowhere

Dirt Road Blues alternate lyrics from #TheLyricsSince1962. Do these match the new version on the upcoming Fragments release, I wonder?
DIRT ROAD BLUES
#BobDylan
Gon' walk on down that dirt road
Till I'm right beside the sun
Gon' walk on down
Until I'm right beside the sun
I'm gonna have to put up a barrier
To keep myself away from everyone

So I finally successfully acquired #BobDylan's massive and weighty THE LYRICS SINCE 1962 book. All 961 pages of it.
As someone more than a little obsessed with transcribing Dylan lyrics and tracking variants, I'll be sharing my thoughts and discoveries here using the #TheLyricsSince1962 tag
