Black Jack Davey (The White Stripes Cover)

The White Stripes cover of Black Jack Davey, made famous by Bob Dylan.

No video, just audio. Not sorry,
Watch with your ears. It's music.

If you like this song, don't give me any kudos, don't subscribe to me. Buy a White Stripes Album instead.

Lyrics:
Pull off, pull off your really white hands,
something, something, Baby!
I drive around around in my little red truck,
listening to Black Jack Davey.
I'm in love with Black Jack Davey.
Something, something,
and then the song ends.

Also, because the comment section is reserved for comments on the artists, I don't even read the comments to this video. I automagically assume the comments are for Jack and Meg White, so if you have a question or want to say something to me, or about me, please inbox me, or forever hold your peace.

RIP the White Stripes!

chadd990, you're a man after my heart.

Instead, don't buy a White Stripes album. Buy them ALL!

@JiS01

eh, I guess works too!

This is totally wicked awesome as the White Stripes always are awesome. I love the gallop sort of beat. Gallop beats are awesome withother songs too like Heart's Barracuda and Ghost Riders in The Sky. I'm practicing my guitar galloping on these three great songs.

Made famous by Bob Dylan? Roud Numer One? The most ancient and popular of the twenty thousand? Wow! That's as impressive as the ancient mansions of Beverly Hills. I had no idea that the Fukushima fallout had gotten this bad!

@ronniesoak2003 Nope

The reason most people prefer this version to all others, though they might not know it is the drums. It's a small touch, but the extra layer of beats combined with the slick guitar work by Jack makes for the best version of Black Jack Davey.

Also, Jack tells the story with the most fire.

Sharliza is a crazier version of Jack Davey! Type in No Go Pogo and you'll see what I mean...

@toothfairytats Would you say there are similarities with House carpenter? I was just listening to this again and have been listening to the first bootleg series a bit lately and couldn’t help be reminded of house carpenter listening to this. And I gotta agree, Im a huge Dylan fan and not especially a WS fan, but I love this version

Needs to be replayed for... the rest of time

[ronniesoak2003]

Brill version of a trad song .... needs a violin somewhere though. instead of the guitar solos mayhap....

I imagined this was gonna be like the STEELEYE SPAN song of the same title. It's an entirely different song and different tune but I think the lyrics tell somewhat the same story. .
