Braggin’

A little-known 1940s swing number, Braggin' opens the second disc of Triplicate at a jaunty tempo.

The words

A man playfully boasts about his sweetheart while admitting he may be bragging a bit too much.

The song is a light, teasing piece in which the singer cannot stop showing off about the person he loves. It is one of the more upbeat tracks on the album, built on a bouncing swing rhythm and a sense of humour about its own boasting. Dylan sounds amused and relaxed, and the band keeps the groove brisk, a cheerful start to a disc that soon turns darker.
