Barry from Sauquoit, NyOn May 17th 1966, Bob Dylan appeared in concert at the Free Trade Hall in Manchester, England.

Sean Kelleher from FloridaRainy women is a 1930s,40s slang term for a pot joint.

That would come later- and he wouldn't be performing it with a joint in his hand. Plus, the music is wildly unconventional and reflective of the same in a way that recalls Bill Hicks: 'The musicians who made all that great music that's enhanced your lives throughout the years? Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrreal high on drugs.' I find it hard to believe Dylan was making some kind of obscure biblical reference in view of that context. 1966 is not even two years removed from Dylan introducing the Beatles to pot and right on the doorstep of the Summer of Love. At the end of the day, I think they're meaningless and it's 100% a lighthearted drug anthem/party song.

Phil from NycThe most compelling argument I've read is that the numbers are a reference to 420 (12*35).AnonymousIt seems everybody must get stoned could be a biblical reference, he used others should always do for others and let others do for you.Truthbomb from WashingtonRipped off from: Phil Ochs - You Can't Get Stoned Enough / Just One o' Those Days (1963).Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind They'll stone you when you are set down in your grave.
