Oh the ragman draws circles

Up and down the block

I'd ask him what the matter was

But I know that he don't talk

And the ladies treat me kindly

And furnish me with tape

But deep inside my heart

I know I can't escape

Oh Mama can this really be the end

To be stuck inside of Mobile

With the Memphis blues again

Well Shakespeare he'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 can this really be the end

To be stuck inside of Mobile

With the Memphis blues again

Mona tried to tell me

To stay away from the train line

She said that all the railroad men

Just drink up your blood like wine

And I said Oh I didn't know that

But then again there's only one I've met

And he just smoked my eyelids

And punched my cigarette

Oh Mama can this really be the end

To be stuck inside of Mobile

With the Memphis blues again

Grandpa died last week

And now he's buried in the rocks

But everybody still talks about

How badly they were shocked

But me I expected it to happen

I knew he'd lost control

When he built a fire on Main Street

And shot it full of holes

Oh Mama can this really be the end

To be stuck inside of Mobile

With the Memphis blues again

When Ruthie says come see her

In her honky-tonk lagoon

Where I can watch her waltz for free

'Neath her Panamanian moon

An' I said Aw come on now

You know you know about my debutante

She says you take your time knows what you need

But I know what you want

Oh Mama can this really be the end

To be stuck inside a Mobile

With the Memphis blues again

Now the bricks they lay on Grand Street

Where the neon madmen climb

They all fall there so perfectly

All seems so well timed

An' here I sit so patiently

Waiting to find out what price

You have to pay to get out of

Going through all of these things twice

Oh oh Mama can this really be the end

To be stuck inside a Mobile

With the Memphis blues again
