Oh, yes, it is you. Dylan has several key words that appear over and again throughout his oeuvre, "ain't" and "babe" being two of the most common. The vocabulary frequencies support this simple observation. In Dylan's officially released lyrics, he uses "babe" 88 (.08%) times and "ain't" a staggering 369 (.3%). In comparison, "babe" is found 58 (.05%) times in The Rolling Stone's Top 500, "ain't" a mere 168 (.1%).

The balance is reversed, however, if we look at "baby". To the RS500's 689 (.6%) times, Dylan only uses the word 253 (.3%) times. It ain't me, baby.
