I ain't lookin' to compete with you
Beat or cheat or mistreat you
Simplify you or classify you
Deny, defy or crucify you
All i really want to do
Is baby be friends with you.
No an' i ain't lookin' to fight with you
Frighten you or uptighten you
Drag you down or drain you down
Chain you down or bring you down
All i really want to do
Is baby be friends with you.
I aint lookin' to block you up
Shock or knock or lock you up
Analyse you, categorize you
Finalize you or advertise you
All i really want to do
Is baby be friends with you.
I don't want to straightface you
Race or chase you, track or trace you
Or disgrace you or displace you
Or define you or confine you
All I really want to do
Is baby be friends with you.
I don't want to meet your kin
Make you spin or do you in
Or select you or dissect you
Or inspect you or reject you
All i really want to do
Is baby be friends with you.
I don't want to fake you out
Take or shake or forsake you
I aint lookin' for you to feel like me
See like me or be like me
All i really want to do
Is baby be friends with you.

Review:
A jam packed 80 minute disc offering various studio outtakes of the 60s. While this is a great quality set, I prefer to have a full set from a particular session, rather than hop scotching on highlights. That said, there are some real gems here. While appearing on several other boot releases, the fan of top quality studio outtakes will enjoy this. This is the first installment of a series that was intended (as the title implies) to chronicle acetate recordings of studio outtakes. However, it loses momentum after the first two releases. The covers are generic scenes of roadways. While captivating, they have no Dylan tie-in.
