Which song do you like most of the Traveling Wilburys which can be directly called a Dylan song.
In case you believe there are other songs which have the specific Dylan mark, feel free to add and comment, but I believe these are the ones. "Inside Out" is a combined song and "If You Belonged To Me" may look like a Dylan lyrics song, but I'm not sure from who it came since George did it on VH-1.

What??!! You don't have the Wilbury Twist? That's my favorite song and it's hysterical!

Very nice thread.
Ivoted Dirty World. Here's why, and why the other missed:
Dirty World. A very funny song. I wonder if this song gave Bob the confidence to attack songwriting with verve again?
Congratulations. Excellent piece, but sometimes feels a little too "bitterly sung". But only sometimes.
Tweeter And The Monkey Man. Cute and cool story – kind of a lighter Dylan epic.
Seven Deadly Sins. Sin Number One ... nicely constructed song. Like all Dylan's Wilbury stuff, great to sing along with.
Where Were You Last Night. As a song this is probably the best of Dylan's pieces out of Vols 1 & 3.
Cool Dry Place. I didn't think this was a Dylan piece! I could be wrong.

Not being the greatest Dylan fan ever, this was kinda hard. I went with Tweeter and the Monkey Man because of the great appeal it has for my granddaughter. Maybe she is a budding fan... images/icons/wink.gif
...and no, I don't think Wilbury Twist is to be entirely credited to Dylan.

I consider it to be one of the "Kitchen Table" songs haha good one for the next poll.

Where Were You Last Night
Cool Dry Place is a Petty song.

George was very much always doing Dylan covers ("Abandoned Love", "Absolutely Sweet Marie", "If Not For You", "I Don't Want To Do It")... I believe it fits his voice pretty well. And I do think this song has Dylan written all over it. Needless to say I would have voted that one, since it's one of my favorite Wilburys songs.
But since it's not a choice... images/icons/wink.gif
"Inside Out" is funny as hell. Especially the "wax" part. images/icons/smile.gif

I love Tweeter and the Monkeyman.Great story and to me Dylan is almost doing a parody of himself.

It was close between Dirty World and Where Were You Last Night, but I decided on the latter.

This one was tougher than I thought, but I went with Dirty World. Great lyrics!

I had to go with 'Dirty World' with 'Where Were You Last Night' a close second.

I'm a Dirty World girl too. images/icons/smile.gif This one always makes me smile. As does Where Were You Last Night which is also my second choice as well.
I'm a bit surprised no one has picked Congratulations yet. I find it to be quite charming also.
