Bessie was more than just a friend of mine
We shared the good times with the bad
Now many a year has passed me by
I still recall the best thing I ever had
I'm just goin' down the road t' see Bessie
Oh, See her soon
Goin' down the road t' see Bessie Smith
When I get there I wonder what she'll do
Now all the crazy things I had to try
Well I tried them all and then some
But if you're lucky one day you find out
Where it is you're really comin' from
I'm just goin' down the road t' see Bessie
Oh, See her soon
Goin' down the road t' see Bessie Smith
When I get there I wonder what she'll do
Now in my day I've made some foolish moves
But back then, I didn't worry 'bout a thing
And now again I still wonder to myself
Was it her sweet love or the way that she could sing
I'm just goin' down the road t' see Bessie
Oh, See her soon
Goin' down the road t' see Bessie Smith
When I get there I wonder what she'll do
There's so much time has gone right on by
I didn't think one could be so wrong
And then one night I was drinkin' and a thinkin'
In the bottom of the glass I could see Bessie's face so strong
I'm just goin' down the road t' see Bessie
Oh, See her soon
Goin' down the road t' see Bessie Smith
When I get there I wonder what she'll do
When she sees me will she know what I've been through?
Will old times start to feelin' like new?
When I get there will our love still feel so true?
Yet all I have, I'll be a bringin' it to you
Oh Bessie, sing them old time blues
Bob Dylan, born Robert Allen Zimmerman in Duluth, Minnesota on May 24, 1941, is an American singer-songwriter, composer, writer, poet, painter, actor, and radio host. Considered one of the most influential figures of the last fifty years in music, popular culture, and literature, Dylan has profoundly marked the history of American music. His career began in the 1960s, when he emerged as a key figure in the American protest movement. Songs like *Blowin' in the Wind* and *The Times They Are A-Changin'* became anthems for pacifist and civil rights movements. The lyrics of his early songs addressed political, social, and philosophical themes, influenced by literary authors such as Walt Whitman and William Blake, challenging the conventions of pop music and appealing to the counterculture of the time. Over the years, Dylan has expanded and personalized his musical style, exploring genres such as country, blues, rock, and gospel. Among his most important albums: *The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan* (1963), *Bringing It All Back Home* (1965) and *Highway 61 Revisited* (1965). In 1976 he released the album *Desire*, marking a new chapter in his career with blues and country influences. In 2016, he received the Nobel Prize in Literature «for having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition».
