Dylan is not really the songwriter of them all. These are the right attributions (and actual titles, since a couple of them were wrong too):

A1 Stealin' - Attributed to Bob Dylan is actually a song first recorded by Memphis Jug Band in a recording session which took place on September 15, 1928, in Memphis, Tennessee, and was made popular later by Mississippi John Hurt. It has been frequently attributed to American blues musician Gus Cannon, though it might have predated him.
A2 Hard Times In New York Town - B. Dylan
A3 Wade In The Water - Trad. spiritual first published in New Jubilee Songs as sung by the Fisk Jubilee Singers (1901). It is associated with the songs of the Underground Railroad.
A4 That's All Right Mama - Written and originally performed by blues singer Arthur Crudup, recorded in 1946. It is best known as the debut single recorded and released by Elvis Presley, also recorded by Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash and Grateful Dead.
A5 New Orleans Rag - B. Dylan
B1 Let Me Follow You Down - Eric Von Schmidt arr. of a trad. song, though made popular through its appearance on Bob Dylan's debut album Bob Dylan.
B2 V.D. Blues - This might be really Woodie Guthrie's song "V.D. Blues," which chronicles a man's feelings after contracting venereal disease. Guthrie wrote several songs promoting the awareness and prevention of this STD, and Dylan recorded demos of many of them, though this one comes from The Minnesota Hotel Tape, recorded in December 22, 1961 at Bonnie Beecher's apartment.
B3 The Cough Song - B. Dylan
B4 If I Could Do It All Over - B. Dylan (Actual title of the song is "All Over You", as per Witmark Demos).
B5 Cocaine Blues - Rev. Gary Davis arr. of a trad. roadsong

Though noted on back cover and labels as live recorded, a few of these are not actually live recordings but Witmark demos and studio outtakes.

A1,2,3, B1,2,5 recorded at Bonnie Beecher's apartment in Minneapolis, December 22, 1961. From the so called Minnesota Hotel Tape.
