I find listening to James takes me on a trip visually, I sometimes drive for miles while listening to him-and don't remember a thing about the drive. Scary...but amazing

Growing up in Wyoming, I always loved the lights of Cheyenne. Every word of this song hits home. I had many "cowboy problems"....James if my hero!

Perfect. Sounded great live.

Ten Sleep is nothing like Mississippi....I hate that! What an insult to every person in Wyoming!

I use this song as a metric to tell when I'm depressed or heartbroken. If I'm happy, I never listen to this song. If I'm depressed, I listen to this song a few times a day. Every fucking lyric is needles in my heart. It's such a desolate song.

Hey, I've been to Ten Sleep (flat-bed trucking, on my way from Buffalo to Lovell). We stopped and had a few there and took a nap.
You couldn't swing a cat by the tail there without scratching a dozen "moronic drunks". Kinda like south Mississippi with better scenery.

Actually, It's AATWatchtower, but I love Desolation Row, too, so good guess.

I have a feeling the Dylan song you refer to is Desolation Row.



Toterola451: After some consideration, the Ten Sleep Chamber of Commerce and Cat-Washing Committee finally approved your sanctioned, yet unsolicited, motto to note: "Ten Sleep: Kinda Like South Mississipi With Better Scenery."
So far, we have sold enough bumper stickers to afford a new Slip-n-Slide for the town kids. Many thanks.
