No, Bob Dylan did not write this song. He first heard it in New York where a fellow folk singer was doing it, and decided to put it on his first album. Only one or two songs on that one are written by him. It (the original lyrics, at least, which speak about a girl) was probably written by Georgia Turner and Bert Martin.
