If your memory serves you well, we're going to meet again and wait
So I'm going to unpack all my things and sit before it gets too late
No matter what, we'll come to you with another tale to tell
And you know that we shall meet again if your memory serves you well
Wheels on fire
Rolling down the road
Just notify my next of kin
This wheel shall explode
If your memory serves you well, I was going to confiscate your lace
And wrap it up in a sailor's knot and hide it in your case
If I knew for sure that it was yours, and it was oh so hard to tell
And you know that we shall meet again if your memory serves you well
If your memory serves you well, you'll remember that you're the one
Who called on them to call on me to get you your favours done
And after every plan had failed and there was nothing more to tell
And you know that we shall meet again if your memory serves you well
So I'm going to unpack all my things and sit before it gets too late
No matter what, we'll come to you with another tale to tell
And you know that we shall meet again if your memory serves you well
Wheels on fire
Rolling down the road
Just notify my next of kin
This wheel shall explode
If your memory serves you well, I was going to confiscate your lace
And wrap it up in a sailor's knot and hide it in your case
If I knew for sure that it was yours, and it was oh so hard to tell
And you know that we shall meet again if your memory serves you well
If your memory serves you well, you'll remember that you're the one
Who called on them to call on me to get you your favours done
And after every plan had failed and there was nothing more to tell
And you know that we shall meet again if your memory serves you well

This song is about God. And rejecting his judgment for your own - hence free will. The first speaker tells the man how important he has been to him, how he owns his soul and will judge him on Judgment day. The man tells him to tell someone who cares - he's going to live his life his own way for all he's got. Notify my next of kin, This wheel shall explode!
One of Dylan's best if you ask me.
