the song you were thinkin of by bob dylan is Highway 61 revisted, i know how songs can linger in my head and bug the fuck otta me untill i figure it out; if you’re the same way, i hope this helps:
Oh, God said to Abraham, “Kill me a son”
Abe says, “Man you must be puttin’ me on”
God says, “No”, Abe say “What?”
God say “You can do what you want Abe but
The next time you see me comin’ you better run”
Well Abe said, “Where do you want this killin’ done?”
God say, “Out on Highway 61”
Well Georgia Sam he had a bloody nose
Welfare department they wouldn’t give him no clothes
He asked poor Howard, “Where can I go?”
Howard said, “There’s only one place I know”
Sam said, “Tell me quick man and I got to run”
0ld howard just pointed with his gun
And said, “That way down Highway 61”
Well Mack the finger said to Louie the King
“I got forty red white and blue shoe strings
And a thousand telephones that don’t ring
Do you know where I can get rid of these things?”
And Louie the King said, “Let me think for a minute son”
And he said, “Yes I think it can be easily done
Just take everything down to Highway 61”

I thought I replied to this last night, but perhaps the weather froze my brain.
Perhaps the inside of me came down in rain
maybe I got run down by a train
a plane
forgot my cane
tipped upside down
and bouncing on my head
I think that’s what you said.
Am I dead
my name is Jed
or Ted
Don’t really matter
I don’t own a gun
cause I’m out on highway 61
