MatchboxBob Dylan

Featuring: Johnny Cash

Songwriter: Carl Perkins

Producer: Bob Johnston

Well I'm sitting here wondering
Will a matchbox hold my clothes
Yeah I'm sitting here wondering
Will a matchbox hold my clothes

I ain't got no matches, but I got a long way to go
I'm an ol' poor boy and a long way from home
I'm an ol' poor boy and a long way from home

Guess I'll never be happy, everything I do is wrong, yeah
Well let me be your little dog, 'till your big dog comes
Let me be your little dog, 'till your big dog comes
When the big dog gets here, tell him what this little puppy done

Yeah I'm sitting here wondering
Will a matchbox hold my clothes
Yeah I'm sitting here wondering
Will a matchbox hold my clothes
I got no matches, got a long way to go
Let 'er go boy, go-go

Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan (born Robert Zimmerman May 24, 1941), is an American singer-songwriter, writer, and artist who has influenced popular music and culture for more than five decades. Dylan has especially played a critical role in the American folk music revival.

Dylan’s songs are built from myriad political, social, philosophical and literary influences. Many of his anti-war and civil-rights-influenced songs set social unrest, as journalists widely named him the “spokesman for his generation” in the 1960s.

The musician has a signature change in voice and style in many different albums of his throughout the decades. He has notably explored and experimented with the genres of folk, rap, blues, and rock.
