John Birch Paranoid Blues {Live at Town Hall 1963} - Elston Gunn

Dylan was a "pot stirrer"

Thank you my friend SGT (Join to see) for posting the music video of Bob Dylan performing John Birch Paranoid Blues live at Town Hall 1963 in honor of the fact that on May 12, 1963, Bob Dylan walked out of "The Ed Sullivan Show" over a dispute about his song choice.

John Birch Paranoid Blues
[Verse 1]
Well, I was feeling sad and feeling blue
I didn’t know what in the world I wus gonna do
Them Communists they was coming around
They was in the air
They was on the ground
They wouldn’t give me no peace

[Verse 2]
So I run down most hurriedly
And joined up with the John Birch Society
I got me a secret membership card
And started off a-walking down the road
Yee-hoo, I’m a real John Bircher now!
Look out you Commies!

[Verse 3]
Now we all agree with Hitler’s views
Although he killed six million Jews
It don’t matter too much that he was a Fascist
At least you can’t say he was a Communist!
That’s to say like if you got a cold you take a shot of malaria

[Verse 4]
Well, I woos looking everywhere for them gol-darned Reds
I got up in the morning and looked under my bed
Looked in the sink, behind the door
Looked in the glove compartment of my car
Couldn’t find them
