Deciphering Bob Dylan's "Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues" from the classic album "Highway 61 Revisited!

In the wake of the recent Dylan biopic, "A Complete Unknown," his 1965 album "Highway 61 Revisited" has re-appeared on the charts 50 year after it's initial release! This song was one of many great ones on that revolutionary album, in which Dylan finally went full electric.

This reaction also includes a segment from Dylan's famous concert at London's Royal Albert Hall in which he attempted to explain the meaning of this song. That concert was the last in his 1966 World Tour and his fatigue is very evident.

Here is the link to the Albert Hall segment that I used:

And here is the official audio for the song:
