Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat Lyrics

Well, I see you got your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat
Yes, I see you got your brand new leopard-skin pill-box hat
Well, you must tell me, baby
How your head feels under somethin' like that
Under your brand new leopard-skin pill-box...

    I've listened to this song for years and... I've come to find it one of the sexiest songs ever written. With it's heavy blues swing and lyrics such as "Can I jump on it sometime/I just want to see if it's the expensive kind"--it's fun and quite erotic. And... Hysterical! Which describes "Blonde On Blonde" as a whole. Hysterical!

    I read somewhere that this song was written about actress Edie Sedgwick, who was part of the scene at Andy Warhol's factory. Apparently she and Dylan had just broken up.
