Thread Name: Lyr Add: Oh Babe It Ain't No Lie (Elizabeth Cotten
Subject: RE: It ain't no lie

I have a recording of Dylan doing it and he seems to sing that " mighty High" Line. What does it that mean? "mighty hard" makes so much more sense.I have a live Elizibeth Cotten version, not a really good one, but, I always thought the line was "this life I'm living is mighty Hard".
