Lyrics Stuck Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again (Take 13, Alternate Take) - Bob Dylan
Oh,
the
ragman
draws
circles
Up
and
down
the
block
I'd
ask
him
what
the
matter
was
But
I
know
he
doesn't
talk
And
the
ladies
treat
me
kindly
And
furnish
me
with
tape
But
neither
him
nor
the
ragman
Could
help
me
to
escape
Oh,
Mama,
this
could
be
the
end
I'm
stuck
inside
of
Mobile
With
the
Memphis
blues
again
Now,
Shakespeare's
in
the
alley
With
his
pointed
shoes
and
his
bells
Speaking
to
some
French
girl
Who
says
she
knows
me
well
And
I
would
send
a
message
To
find
out
if
she's
talked
But
the
post
office
has
been
stolen
And
the
mailbox
is
locked
Oh,
Mama,
this
might
be
the
end
I'm
stuck
inside
of
Mobile
With
the
Memphis
blues
again
Now,
Mona
tried
to
help
me
She
said
stay
away
from
the
train
line
She
said
that
all
the
railroad
men
Just
drink
up
your
blood
like
wine
An'
I
said,
"Oh,
I
don't
know
But
then
again,
there's
only
one
I've
met
An'
he
just
smoked
my
eyelids
An'
punched
my
cigarette"
Oh,
Mama,
this
might
be
the
end
I'm
stuck
inside
of
Mobile
With
the
Memphis
blues
again
Well,
Grandpa
died
last
week
He's
buried
in
the
rocks
Everybody's
still
talking
about
How
badly
he
was
shot
And
me,
I
expected
it
I
saw
he'd
lost
control
When
he
built
a
fire
on
Main
Street
And
filled
it
full
of
holes
Oh,
Mama,
this
might
be
the
end
I'm
stuck
inside
of
Mobile
With
the
Memphis
blues
again
Now
the
senator
came
down
here
Showing
ev'ryone
his
gun
Handing
out
free
tickets
To
the
wedding
of
his
son
An'
I
nearly
got
busted
Wouldn't
it
be
my
luck
To
get
caught
without
a
ticket
And
be
discovered
beneath
a
truck
Oh,
Mama,
this
might
be
the
end
I'm
be
stuck
inside
of
Mobile
With
the
Memphis
blues
again
Well
the
preacher
looked
so
baffled
Everytime
I
asked
him
why
he
dressed
With
twenty
pounds
of
headlines
Stapled
on
his
chest
He
cursed
me
when
I'd
whisper
And
say
"You're
not,
you
think
hide?
You
see,
you're
just
like
me
I
hope
you're
satisfied"
Oh,
Mama,
this
might
be
the
end
I'm
stuck
inside
of
Mobile
With
the
Nashville
blues
again
Now
the
rainman
gave
me
two
cures
Then
he
said,
"Jump
right
in"
The
one
was
Texas
medicine
The
other
was
railroad
gin
An'
like
a
fool
I
mixed
them
An'
it
strangled
up
my
mind
An'
now
people
just
get
uglier
An'
I
have
no
sense
of
time
Oh,
Mama,
I
just
need
a
friend
I'm
stuck
inside
of
Mobile
With
the
Memphis
blues
again
