Bob Dylan: I Am Tangled Up In Blue And Stuck Inside of Mobile With The Memphis Blues Again

I. Life ain't no rock and roll song
Even if it sounds like one.
I took off
And never came back
Except once
For a funeral
And that don't count.

II. I gave all my money
To a bartender
In a whore house
On the border
While I watched
Rain fall through a window
A girl asked me
What's wrong?

Did you hear that?
I asked.

Come with me
She said.

But I had to go
So I stole a horse
Rode north
Toward the mountains
And something else.

I didn't know what
At the time.

It turned out
To be nothing
But

III. I'm at peace
With my so-called
Wasted life
And that's gotta
Count for something.
