The Prophet Rides Again

Oh, the Ragman draws circles up and down the block[00:04:00]

I'd ask him what the matter was but I know that he don't talk[00:04:00]

And the ladies treat me kindly and furnish me with tape[00:04:00]

But deep inside my heart, Lord, I know I can't escape[00:04:00]

Oh, Mama, can this really be the end[00:04:00]

To be stuck inside of Mobile[00:04:00]

With the Memphis blues again?[00:04:00]

Shakespeare, he's in the alley with his pointed shoes and his bells[00:04:00]

Speaking to some French girl who says she knows me well[00:04:00]

And I would send a message to find out if she's talked[00:04:00]

But the post office has been stolen and the mailbox is locked[00:04:00]

Oh, Mama, can this really be the end[00:04:00]

To be stuck inside of Mobile[00:04:00]

With the Memphis blues again?[00:04:00]

Mona tried to tell me, stay away from the train line[00:04:00]

She said that all the railroad men drink up your blood like wine[00:04:00]

And I said, "Oh I didn't know that but then again there's only one I've met[00:04:00]

And he just smoked my eyelids and punched my cigarette"[00:04:00]

Ooh, Mama, can this really be the end[00:04:00]

To be stuck inside of Mobile[00:04:00]

With the Memphis blues again?[00:04:00]

Grandpa died last week, now he's buried in the rocks[00:04:00]

Everyone still talks about how badly they were shocked[00:04:00]

But me, I expected it to happen, when I seen him lose control[00:04:00]

He built a fire on Main Street and shot it full of holes[00:04:00]

Oh, Mama, can this really be the end[00:04:00]

To be stuck inside of Mobile[00:04:00]

With the Memphis blues again?[00:04:00]

Well now Ruthie said, "Come see her in her honky-tonk lagoon[00:04:00]

Where I could watch her waltz for free 'neath her Panamanian moon"[00:04:00]

And I said, "Aw come on now, you know you know about my debutante"[00:04:00]

She said, "Your debutante just knows what you need[00:04:00]

But I know what you want"[00:04:00]

Oh, Mama, can this really be the end[00:04:00]

To be stuck inside of Mobile[00:04:00]

With the Memphis blues again?[00:04:00]

Now the bricks, they fall on Grand Street where the neon madmen climb[00:04:00]

They'd all fall there so perfectly it all seems so well timed[00:04:00]

And here I sit so patiently waiting to find out what price[00:04:00]

You have to pay to get out of going through all these things twice[00:04:00]

Oh, Mama, can this really be the end[00:04:00]

To be stuck inside of Mobile[00:04:00]

With the Memphis blues again?[00:04:00]
