Tempest track listing

"Roll On John" is a song written and performed by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan that appears as the tenth and final track on his 2012 studio album Tempest. Like much of Dylan's 21st-century output, he produced the song himself using the pseudonym Jack Frost.

There is a traditional folk song by the same title that Dylan had performed in 1962, but the track on Tempest is an original song that pays tribute to John Lennon featuring entirely new music and lyrics by Dylan.
