Ragged Company (Bonus Track)
Oh lord I think I'm falling to my disbelief
I'm cursing like a sailor
I'm lying like a thief
It's hard to heed the calling from the better side of me
When I'm blaming everybody else and no one's coming clean
Lord can you see my thick skin wearing thin
and the demons of a lesser me are beckoning me in
and those who gathered 'round me
I'm watching them all leave
Cause I am my own ragged company
You can take a trip to China
Take a boat to Spain
Take a blue canoe around the world
and never come back again
But traveling don't change a thing
it only makes it worse
Unless the trip you're taking is to change your cruel course
Cause every town's got a mirror
And every mirror still shows me
That I am my own ragged company
Oh oh
Ooo won't you help me lord
won't you help me lord
Someone cut the cord and I'm falling down again
Oh, it's lonely, lord it's mighty cold
And I don't want to live this way
afraid of growing old
And it's hard to heed the warning
When you cannot see the crime
And the only way to remember
is to forget it in a rhyme
But I'm scared to trail that railroad
that leads to Galilee
Because I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged
company
I'm cursing like a sailor
I'm lying like a thief
It's hard to heed the calling from the better side of me
When I'm blaming everybody else and no one's coming clean
Lord can you see my thick skin wearing thin
and the demons of a lesser me are beckoning me in
and those who gathered 'round me
I'm watching them all leave
Cause I am my own ragged company
You can take a trip to China
Take a boat to Spain
Take a blue canoe around the world
and never come back again
But traveling don't change a thing
it only makes it worse
Unless the trip you're taking is to change your cruel course
Cause every town's got a mirror
And every mirror still shows me
That I am my own ragged company
Oh oh
Ooo won't you help me lord
won't you help me lord
Someone cut the cord and I'm falling down again
Oh, it's lonely, lord it's mighty cold
And I don't want to live this way
afraid of growing old
And it's hard to heed the warning
When you cannot see the crime
And the only way to remember
is to forget it in a rhyme
But I'm scared to trail that railroad
that leads to Galilee
Because I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged
company
