Farina was amazing, he shoulda ditched the dopey bint and the folky stuff and concentrated on this type of material, if he hadn' been all smashed-up on the highway, he would've left Bob Dylan standing, whining and mumbling his druggy doggerel. Having said that, his dulcimer work-outs, Euro-Celtic, were inventive, adroit and disciplined, by American folkie standards he was exceptional. It's sort of cool, isn't it, that someone who wrote a novel called Been Down So Long It Looks Like Up To Me, should wind up decapitated in a motorctcle smash? A shame really, that more luvvie-types don't follow his accidental example.

BarerMender "I know the night times over". I believe it is in reference to cacophony he references in the next lyrics, that is a noisy hurried world.

BarerMender

Someone help me out. "I know the something something, honey, nothing else could ever make that sound." It sounds like "I know the math time's old," but that doesn't make any sense.
