"Lily, Rosemary and the Jack of Hearts" is an epic narrative ballad by the American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan released as the seventh song (or the second track on Side Two of the vinyl) on his 1975 album Blood on the Tracks. It is known for its complex plot and nearly nine-minute running time. It is one of five songs on Blood on the Tracks that Dylan initially recorded in New York City in September 1974 and then re-recorded in Minneapolis in December that year; the latter version became the album track.
