Looking for a song:

I have been looking for this song for the longest time, and have come up empty. Anyone know where I can find Lilly, Rosemary, and the Jack of Hearts?

It's a Bob Dylan song, but I like the Joan Baez version. I've looked all over the net with no luck.

Put it in quotation marks and then Google it.

If that doesn't work, add the word lyrics outside the quotation marks. Then Google it.

This method works for me all the time.

Good luck!

Fred, that song is on his Blood on the Tracks album (CD)

Same album that has Tangled up in Blue.

I'll send it to your email. If that doesn't work, let me know and we'll work something else out.

That's on the great Blood on the Tracks album, which also features Buddy Cage on pedal steel.

Fred,
The song is on iTunes but the artist is Robert Krestan of the Czech band Druha Trava. Since the fall of communism, Joan Baez may no longer be available.

Fred, I found several places that you can buy the Joan Baez version, but no U-tube . Sorry!

Thanks. I actually thought I found it on Amazon.com and paid for the download. Couldn't get it to work, though. After trying umpteen times I contacted their customer service and they confirmed my suspicion: My firewall was screwing up the download. But I tried disabling my firewall and anti- virus and the download still wouldn't work.

When I was just about to give up, I suddenly realized it wasn't the Joan Baez version I had bought. It was someone I'd never heard of. Gave up for sure then.

No biggie, as the download only cost 99 cents.

Oh, I should mention I've been e-mailed a couple versions since I posted this request so I should have it taken care of.

For those who love to know what the words are, but can't always make them out, the Internet is a God-send. Lyrics are available for more songs that you ever know existed. New, old, urban, country. You name it, you got it. Even websites for "misheard lyrics." Check those out for a hilarious good time.
