Stuck Inside Of Mobile With The Memphis Blues Again [Live At Jfk Stadium, Philadelphia, Pa, July 7, 1989[00:09:17]
Well the ragman draws circles, up and down the block[00:09:17]
I'd ask him what's the matter, but I know that he don't talk[00:09:17]
And the ladies treat me kindly, and they furnish me with tape[00:09:17]
But deep inside my heart, I know I can't escape[00:09:17]
Oh, mama, can this really be the end[00:09:17]
To be stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis blues again[00:09:17]
Well Shakespeare he's in the alley[00:09:17]
With his pointed shoes and bell[00:09:17]
Speaking with some French girl, who says she knows me well[00:09:17]
And me, I'd send a message, to find out if she's talked[00:09:17]
But the post office has been stolen, and the mailbox is locked[00:09:17]
Oh, mama, can this really be the end[00:09:17]
To be stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis blues again[00:09:17]
Mona tried to warn me, stay away from the train line[00:09:17]
She said that all the railroad men[00:09:17]
Just drink up your blood like wine[00:09:17]
And I said, oh I didn't know that[00:09:17]
But then again there's only one I've met[00:09:17]
He just smoked my eyelids, and he punched my cigarette[00:09:17]
Oh, mama, can this really be the end[00:09:17]
To be stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis blues again[00:09:17]
Grandpa died last week, and they buried him in the rocks[00:09:17]
Everyone still talks about how badly they are shocked[00:09:17]
But me, I expected it to happen, I knew he'd lost control[00:09:17]
When he built a fire on Main Street, and he shot it full of holes[00:09:17]
Oh, mama, can this really be the end[00:09:17]
To be stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis blues again[00:09:17]
Now the senator, he came down here, showing everyone his gun[00:09:17]
Handing out free tickets to the wedding of his son[00:09:17]
And me, I nearly got busted, and wouldn't it be my luck[00:09:17]
To get caught without a ticket and be discovered beneath a truck[00:09:17]
Oh, mama, can this really be the end[00:09:17]
To be stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis blues again[00:09:17]
Now the preacher looks so baffled[00:09:17]
When I asked him why he dressed[00:09:17]
With twenty pounds of headlines stapled to his chest[00:09:17]
But he cursed me when I proved it to him[00:09:17]
Then I said, you see, not even you can hide[00:09:17]
You see, you're just like me, and I hope you're satisfied[00:09:17]
Oh, mama, can this really be the end[00:09:17]
To be stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis blues again[00:09:17]
Now the rainman gave me two cures, then he said jump right in[00:09:17]
The first was Texas medicine, the second was just railroad gin[00:09:17]
And like a fool I mixed them up, and it strangled up my mind[00:09:17]
And now people just get uglier, and I've got no sense of time[00:09:17]
Oh, mama, can this really be the end[00:09:17]
To be stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis blues again[00:09:17]
When Ruthie says come see her in her honky-tonk lagoon[00:09:17]
Where I can watch her waltz for free, 'neath her Panamanian moon[00:09:17]
And I said, oh come on now, you know about my debutante[00:09:17]
And she says, your debutante knows just what you need[00:09:17]
But I know what you want[00:09:17]
Oh, mama, can this really be the end[00:09:17]
To be stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis blues again[00:09:17]
Now the bricks, they lay on Grand Street where the neon madmen climb[00:09:17]
They all fall there so perfectly, it all seems so well timed[00:09:17]
And here I sit so patiently, waiting to find out what price[00:09:17]
You have to pay to get out of[00:09:17]
Going through all of these things twice[00:09:17]
Oh, mama, can this really be the end[00:09:17]
To be stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis blues again[00:09:17]
Oh, mama, can this really be the end[00:09:17]
To be stuck inside of Mobile with the Memphis blues again[00:09:17]
