Rag Mamma Rag Songtext
von The Band

Rag, mama, rag, I can′t believe it's true
Rag, mama, rag, what did you do?
I crawled up to the railroad track
Let the 4:19 scratch my back

Sag, mama, sag, now what′s come over you?
Rag, mama, rag, I'm a pulling out your gag
Gonna turn you lose like an old caboose
Got a tail I need to drag

I ask about your turtle
And you ask about the weather
Well, I can't jump the hurdle and we can′t get together


We could be relaxing
In my sleeping bag
But all you wanna do for me, mama is-

Rag, mama, rag, there′s nowhere to go
Rag, mama, rag, come on risin' up the bow

Rag, mama, rag, where do you roam?
Rag, mama, rag, bring your skinny, little body back home
It′s dog eat dog and cat eat mouse
You can rag, mama, rag, all over my house

Hailstones beatin' on the roof
The bourbon is a hundred proof
It′s you and me and the telephone
Our destiny is quite well known
We don't need to sit and brag
All we gotta do is rag, mama, rag, mama, rag


Rag, mama, rag, where do you roam?
Rag, mama, rag, bring your skinny, little body back home
