Kill Me a Son

It's usually the first verse of "Highway 61 Revisited" (performed here by Johnny Winter) that's quoted by everyone, but to an increasingly large section of the populace, it's the last verse which rings truest these days, so much so that the White House feels obliged to combat the characterization:
Now the rovin' gambler he was very bored
He was tryin' to create a next world war
He found a promoter who nearly fell off the floor
He said I never engaged in this kind of thing before
But yes I think it can be very easily done
We'll just put some bleachers out in the sun
And have it on Highway 61.
