| • | "Lily, Rosemary and the Jack Of Hearts", a song by Bob Dylan, was performed live before the official version was released on the 1975 Album Blood on the Tracks.
The main character in the song is "The Jack of Hearts". In the song, he arranges to allow the prosperous investors in the town (including Jim who owned the town's only diamond mine) to play cards to occupy them while The Jack of Hearts' companions drill through the wall to access the bank safe. To be sure the card-players are distracted, he allows them to cheat and win against him.
The Jack of Hearts knows Big Jim "was no ones fool", so he instructs Lily (his lover) to keep an eye on him. Once Big Jim figures out what is going on he attempts to kill The Jack of Hearts. Unfortunately for Big Jim, Rosemary (Jim's wife) kills him by putting a pen knife in his back before he is able to pull the trigger.
There is a vast variety of interpretations of the story line, and at this time it is unknown which is the most accurate, although there have been two screenplays written based on the song; one commissioned by Dylan and another by a major studio. Neither screenplay ever became a film.
