[@gabrielvazquez5491]

"I saw my father in the streets. At least, I think it was him!" OMG! He sings every line with as much passion and deepness as possible ;(

[@moselstrand3729]

Fantastic, Bob & Band! This powerful evening in Munic I will always remember

[@Klaudiart]

Somehow I'm glad smiling is not one of Bob's band requirements, but I do love to see them smile too. When they do, it's true and real. I think he's saying some people never worked a day in their lives. But they are working so very hard. He is / they are / truly working hard.... do you know how hard it is - it is tough as nails. Stay healthy! Bless you in Australia!

[@Slopoke2785]

Wow, is Bob actually playing to the crowd a little and enjoying himself!? Always like to see him smile on stage and have a little fun. TY for the upload.

[@drummerhere]

[@robertverderese5781]

Really enjoyed this--can't wait to see him in Newark, NJ next month!

[@Andrew-bd8cb]

You're in for a real treat! Saw him in Adelaide, Australia in August. His voice was top notch, great show.

[@ljswack]

See Ya there.

[@johnwood5385]

+robert Verderese A bit of a disappointment way up top, break was weird and coolish. Looking forward to being uptop in Simon & Garfunkel country, Forest Hills, NYC. Take it nice and easy. JBW.

...This song is one of my all time favorite Dylan songs. I liked the new lyrics in this version also. The original "Workin' Man Blues" was penned by Merle Haggard, thus the "#2" designation in the title of this song by Dylan. And there's yet a "third" version of this theme explored in poetry form in the book, entitled, "No Suffering: A Voice Crying Out From The Heart-Land" (c.2012). If you like the lyrics that Dylan uses (and those Haggard used) to explore this socio-political theme, you'd probably also enjoy, as did I, the poem entitled, "Workingman's Blues #3 (Born Too Late)" in the aforementioned book. I don't know all the places that "No Suffering" is offered, but I got mine on Amazon. If you like meaningful poetry, check it out.

[@blindjesse]

I always felt WMB #0 was Jimmie Rodgers' "No Hard Times". Where Haggard got the "buy my kids a brand new pair of shoes" line.

[@pernell666]

this is so fucking good!!!!!!!!

Love it

[@juliengiry]

I hope I was there. I saw him many times (France, Croatia, UK, US,) but he's never played this social song when I was there. So sad Lol ;) I actually love the new lyrics (better that the original' ones!? Don't ya think?) But, I guess, He sang it better in japan?. It sometimes happens with Bob! He fortunately never sings the same twice (think about those playback so-called "singers" ....). Lo! But guys, check out "bob dylan wmb".! it worth it.

[@joshualobley]

Well said.

[@superfuzzymomma]

Tony playing a Fender Bass IV? - Cool

[@adamforeveryoung]

Fucking great!

[@joshualobley]

Pretty amazing - here we see a man re approaching a great song. He is very clever.

Lyrics There's an evenin' haze settlin' over town Starlight by the edge of the creek The buyin' power of the proletariat's gone down Money's gettin' shallow and weak Well, the place I love best is a sweet memory It's a new path that we trod They say low wages are a reality If we want to compete abroad My cruel weapons have been put on the shelf Come sit down on my knee You are dearer to me than myself As you yourself can see While I'm listening to the steel rails hum Got both eyes tight shut Just sitting here trying to keep the hunger from Creeping its way into my gut Meet me at the bottom, don't lag behind Bring me my boots and shoes You can hang back or fight your best on the frontline Sing a little bit of these workingman's blues Well, I'm sailin' on back, ready for the long haul Tossed by the winds and the seas I'll drag 'em all down to hell and I'll stand 'em at the wall I'll sell 'em to their enemies I'm tryin' to feed my soul with thought Gonna sleep off the rest of the day Sometimes no one wants what we got Sometimes you can't give it away Now the place is ringed with countless foes Some of them may be deaf and dumb No man, no woman knows The hour that sorrow will come In the dark I hear the night birds call I can feel a lover's breath I sleep in the kitchen with my feet in the hall Sleep is like a temporary death Meet me at the bottom, don't lag behind Bring me my boots and shoes You can hang back or fight your best on the frontline Sing a little bit of these workingman's blues Well, they burned my barn, and they stole my horse I can't save a dime I got to be careful, I don't want to be forced Into a life of continual crime I can see for myself that the sun is sinking How I wish you were here to see Tell me now, am I wrong in thinking That you have forgotten me? Now they worry and they hurry and they fuss and they fret They waste your nights and days Them I will forget But you I'll remember always Old memories of you to me have clung You've wounded me with your words Gonna have to straighten out your tongue It's all true, everything you've heard Meet me at the bottom, don't lag behind Bring me my boots and shoes You can hang back or fight your best on the frontline Sing a little bit of these workingman's blues In you, my friend, I find no blame Wanna look in my eyes, please do No one can ever claim That I took up arms against you All across the peaceful sacred fields They will lay you low They'll break your horns and slash you with steel I say it so it must be so Now I'm down on my luck and I'm black and blue Gonna give you another chance I'm all alone and I'm expecting you To lead me off in a cheerful dance I got a brand new suit and a brand new wife I can live on rice and beans Some people never worked a day in their life Don't know what work even means Well, meet me at the bottom, don't lag behind Bring me my boots and shoes You can hang back or fight your best on the frontline Sing a little bit of these workingman's blues Songwriters: Bob Dylan

[@kieransoregaard-utt8]

You do realize that he changed about 25% of the lyrics for this performance, right? Looks like you just copied and pasted the album version, and a lot of it isn’t the same as this version.

[@adamforeveryoung]

still fucking great, 2 weeks later, cant wait for the North American Tour!!! Please come back to the Bardavon in Poughkeepsie, or a couple of nights at The Ulster Preforming Arts Center in Kingston nY or anyplace in Woodstock!!

[@MrPernell27]

09/05/2014 tickets go on sale for the entire North American tour

[@Andrew-bd8cb]

When I first heard this performance I didn't really like the new lyrics...the more I listen to it the better it sounds. Great work, pretty hard song to make even better.

[@TheSamoht67]

Andrew, same as that, but the way Bob changes it up is so great,.

[@andreaschlapek9208]

I was there

[@fredgardiner6734]
