?? the Bitchin Babes are the only ones to sing this but I would like the chords too if anyone knows them as it is defeating me. It may be that I will not be able to sing it but this is my last ditch try.

Thanks in anticipation for any help

Seems like they have a song called Bob Dylan's poetry?
Could it be that?

Yes... the song itself is called "Bob Dylan's Poetry" but some of the words elude me and the chords have me lost. It's a brilliant song that is foxing me

Thank you

"?? the Bitchin Babes are the only ones to sing this but I would like the chords too "

The groups name is "Four Bitchin' Babes". That said, I couldn't find any lyrics.

Debi Smith wrote BOB DYLAN'S POETRY. She is a member of the Four Bitchin' Babes. It's on the group's album "Some Assembly Required" and on her solo album "The Soprano."

One review described the song as "a sentimental story of her crush on an English teacher."

Here are a couple of excerpts from samples:


Once he brought a guitar and we spent the whole hour
Singin' Bob Dylan's poetry.

When he talked about Dante there was fire in his soul
And the class was burning,
To [or "through"?] Hemingway, Mark Twain, and Yeats and ....
