Grace Potter
Ragged Company
Oh Lord I think Im falling to my disbelief
Im cursing like a sailor
Lieing like a thief
Its hard to heed the calling
From the better side of me
Im blaming everybody else
And no ones coming clean
Oh Lord can you see
My thick skins wearing thin
And the demons of a lesser me
Are beckoning me in
Those who gather around me
Im watching them all leave
Cause I am my own ragged company
So you can take a trip to China
Take a boat to Spain
Take a blue canoe around the world
And make it come back again
The traveling dont change a thing
Only makes it worse
Unless the trip you take is in
The change of cruel course
Cause every towns got a mirror
And every mirror still shows me
That I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged company
Won't you help me Lord
Won't you help me Lord
Someone cut the cord
And Im falling down again
Oh its lonely
Lord its mighty cold
And I dont want to live this way
Afarid of growing old
Its hard to heed the warning
When you cannot see the crime
The only way to remember
Is to forget in a rhyme
And im scared to tread the red road
That leads to galaly
Cause I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged company
