  Oh the rag-man draws c  ircles Up   and down the bl  ock.
I'd   ask him what the   matter was Bu  t I know that he don't   talk.
And the la  dies treat me ki  ndly And fu  rnish me with t  ape
But   deep inside my hea  rt I k  now I can't esc  ape
 
 
[Refrain :]
  Oh Mama, Can this really be the end ?
To be s  tuck ins  ide of Mob  ile, wi  th the Me  mphis blues aga  in ?
 
 
  Well, Shakespeare, he's in the alle  y With his po  inted shoes and his b  ells.
Spea  king to a French   girl, Who say  s she knows me we  ll.
And I woul  d send a message   To find ou  t if she's talk  ed,
But   the post office has be  en stolen   And the mail box is   locked.
 
 
[Refrain]
 
 
  Mona tried to tell me To st  ay far away   from the railroad   line.
She   said that all the   railroad men   Drink your blood like   wine.
An'I said   "Oh, I didn't kno  w that But then   again there's only one I've   me
An'h  e just smoked my ey  elids An'punc  hed my cigarett  e"
 
 
[Refrain]
 
 
  Grandpa died last wee  k And now he  's buried in the   rock
But   everybody tal  k about How b  adly they were shoc  ked.
But me I e  xpected it to ha  ppen I knew   he'd lost cont  rol
When   he built a fire o  n main street A  nd shot it full of h  oles.
 
 
[Refrain]
 
 
  Now the senator came   down here Show  ing everyone his   gun.
Hand  ing out free tic  kets To   the wedding of his son  .
An'me I ne  arly got busted   An wouldn't   it be my luck  
To g  et Caught without   a ticket And   be discovered beneath a t  ruck
 
 
[Refrain]
 
 
  Now the preacher look  ed so baffled When I   asked him why he dr  essed
With   twenty pounds of   headlines St  apled to his ch  est
But he cur  sed when I prove  d to him Then   I whispered not even you can hi  de.
You   see you're just li  ke me I   hope your satis  fied
 
 
[Refrain]
 
 
  Now the rainman gave   me two cures The  n he said "Jump   right in"
The   one was Texas med  icine The   other railroad g  in.
An like a   fool I mixed the  m An'it str  angled up my mi  nd
An'n  ow people just get   uglier An'  I have no sense of t  ime.
 
 
[Refrain]
 
 
  When Ruthie says come   see her In   her honkey-tonk   lagoon,
Wher  e I can watch her   waltz for free   'Neath her Panamanian   moon.
An'I say,   "Aw come on now   You must kn  ow about my deb  utante."
An's  he says, "Your deb  utante knows   just what you   need
But I know what you want."
 
 
[Refrain]
 
 
  Now the bricks lay on   Grand Street Wh  ere the neon madmen c  limb
They   all fall there s  o perfectly.   It all seems so well ti  med.
An'here I   sit so patiently   Waiting to f  ind out what pr  ice
You   have to pay to get   out of Goi  ng through all these thing  s twice
 
 
[Refrain]
