Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm goin' to Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me In the jingle-jangle mornin', I'll come followin' you Though I know that evening's empire has returned into sand Vanished from my hand Left me blindly here to stand, but still not sleepin' My weariness amazes me, I am branded on my feet I have no one to meet And my ancient empty street's too dead for dreamin' Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm goin' to Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me In the jingle-jangle mornin', I'll come followin' you Take me on a trip upon your magic swirlin' ship My senses have been stripped My hands can't feel to grip My toes too numb to step Wait only for my boot heels to be wanderin' I'm ready to go anywhere, I'm ready for to fade Into my own parade, cast your dancin' spell my way I promise to go under it Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm goin' to Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me In the jingle-jangle mornin', I'll come followin' you Though you might hear laughin', spinnin', swingin' madly across the Sun It's not aimed at anyone, it's just escapin' on the run And, but for the sky, there are no fences facin' And if you hear vague traces of skippin' reels of rhyme To your tambourine in time, it's just a ragged clown behind I wouldn't pay it any mind It's just a shadow you're seein' that he's chasin' Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm goin' to Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me In the jingle-jangle mornin', I'll come followin' you And take me disappearin' through the smoke rings of my mind Down the foggy ruins of time, far past the frozen leaves The haunted, frightened trees, out to the windy beach Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand wavin' free Silhouetted by the sea, circled by the circus sands With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves Let me forget about today until tomorrow Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm goin' to Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me In the jingle-jangle mornin', I'll come followin' you

O primeiro lançamento de “Mr. Tambourine Man” foi em 1965, como faixa de abertura da versão acústica do álbum *Bringing It All Back Home* de Bob Dylan.
A versão dos Byrds, lançada em abril de 1965, atingiu o topo do Billboard Hot 100 e da UK Singles Chart, além de ser a faixa-título do primeiro álbum da banda.
Tanto a gravação original de Dylan quanto a dos Byrds foram incluídas no Hall of Fame do Grammy e aparecem na lista de 500 maiores músicas do Rolling Stone (2004).
A influência da versão dos Byrds motivou Dylan a gravar com equipamentos elétricos depois de ouvir a reinterpretação durante ensaios em 1964 no World Pacific Studios.
O sucesso dos Byrds popularizou o subgênero folk‑rock e jangle pop, inspirando bandas contemporâneas a misturar guitarras “jangly” com letras intelectuais.
A canção foi traduzida para outras línguas e citada ou usada em programas de televisão, filmes e livros, ampliando seu alcance cultural além do cenário musical.
