(Words and Music by Bob Dylan)
5
Every step of the way, we walk the line
6
Your days are numbered, so are mine
7
Time is piling up, we struggle and we stray
8
We're all boxed in, nowhere to escape
9
City's just a jungle, more games to play
10
Trapped in the heart of it, tryin' to get away
11
I was raised in the country, I been working in the town
12
I been in trouble ever since I set my suitcase down
13
Got nothing for you, I had nothing before
14
Don't even have anything for myself anymore
15
Sky full of fire, Pain pouring down
16
Nothing you can sell me, I'll see you around
17
All my powers of expression and thoughts so sublime
18
Could never do you justice in reason or rhyme
19
Only one thing I did wrong
20
Stayed in Mississippi a day too long
21
Well, the devil's in the alley, mule's in the stall
22
Say anything you wanna, I have heard it all
23
I was thinking about the things that Rosie said
24
I was dreaming I was sleeping in Rosie's bed
25
Walking through the leaves, falling from the trees
26
Feeling like a stranger nobody sees
27
So many things that we never will undo
28
I know you're sorry, I'm sorry too
29
Some people will offer you their hand and some won't
30
Last night I knew you, tonight I don't
31
I need something strong to distract my mind
32
I'm gonna look at you 'til my eyes go blind
33
Well I got here following the southern star
34
I crossed that river just to be where you are
35
Only one thing I did wrong
36
Stayed in Mississippi a day too long
37
Well my ship's been split to splinters and it's sinking fast
38
I'm drowning in the poison, got no future, got no past
39
But my heart is not weary, it's light and it's free
40
I've got nothing but affection for all those who sailed with me
41
Everybody's moving, if they ain't already there
42
Everybody's got to move somewhere
43
Stick with me baby, stick with me anyhow
44
Things should start to get interesting right about now
45
My clothes are wet, tight on my skin
46
Not as tight as the corner that I painted myself in
47
I know that fortune is waiting to be kind
48
So give me your hand and say you'll be mine
49
Well, the emptiness is endless, cold as the clay
50
You can always come back, but you can't come back all the way
51
Only one thing I did wrong
52
Stayed in Mississippi a day too long
