  66 <p>*) Dylan's lyrics are inaudible (to me anyway). The Grateful Dead's
  67 version goes:</p>
  68
  69 <pre class="verse">
  70 &ldquo;Well, a couple shots of whiskey, women round here start looking good<br />
  71  Well, a couple shots of whiskey, women round here start looking good<br />
  72  A couple more shots of whiskey, I'm going down to Minglewood&rdquo;
  73 </pre>
  74 <p>**) Dylan sings something else &ndash; probably intending to sing the same
  75 as in the last verse.
