The song, which appeared on the B-side of You Make Me Real^[1], was first released as a single from the album Morrison Hotel in March 1970 and peaked at #50^[2]. The song quickly became a concert staple for the group, notoriously^[3] appearing later on the posthumous album An American Prayer and the same again on In Concert and Greatest Hits.

Songfacts.com has the lyrics to the song, so said, in violation of law. Same with Songmeanings.net. Some “laws” are outdated, though, therefore I respect their brazenitude, though this is a 100% legal site - all downloads are purchased, and because the songs are subject to everyone’s inspection, I try to graph songs of which I have a clean digital copy. Also, as much as I want to, I do not show the lyrics. Speed is free. Lyrics are property. I know, war is peace. I’m no Orwell but I am a lawyer since 1991, and unlike President Clinton I have never been suspended or reprimanded by the bar. Then again my legal career is not much to brag about. I would take a case defending anyone’s “right” to reprint lyrics freely. I just do not do it because, well, it pisses the musicians off - sheet music sales are down 90% because of harmonic tabs and lyrics sheets. That’s saving to the consumer, absolutely - but a blow to the rockers who saw royalties in perpetuity. No one saw the digital age metastasizing so fast.

Once again, no one will start you off as that of a Wikipedia at -

Ok - here’s the question: how can a song about “when the future is uncertain/the end is always bear” be at the speed of victory? Answer - just listen to the song. As we say: listen to the melody and the groove, *then* check out the words. This is a song of pure victory.
