At more than sixteen minutes it closes the album and was then the longest studio track Dylan had released.
The words
A man rambles through a city day, including a long exchange with a waitress, while his mind is set on a distant, longed-for place.
Over a long, loping blues, a man drifts through an ordinary city day while his mind keeps returning to the highlands, a distant place where he feels he truly belongs. He watches people pass, grumbles about the times, and stops in a restaurant, where a waitress asks him to draw her and their exchange turns wry and prickly. The tone is dry, funny and weary all at once. At more than sixteen minutes it closes Time Out of Mind.
