BONES
I can tell a story; I can BS with the best
Me and my dog Lucky pull Montejo from the west
And if you need a pump repaired, I'll do it while you're gone
Cuz if you stick around, I'll dick around, and sing you my sad song
Because I need you; I need you to help me
I don't understand the cards they dealt me
And I can't explain, Just why I remain
Where the rain goes
I can pitch a six-pack, even though I ain't that good
I can craft amazin' shit from old discarded wood
If you need to borrow, just come by my place today
If you can't make it by I'll drop it off along my way
Because I need you; I need you to help me
I don't understand the cards that they dealt me
And I can't explain, Just why I remain
When the wind blows
Havin' trouble drinking water, when it's hot I'd rather beer
And when I work… you turn your head, I seem to disappear
But I'll never take advantage, cuz that's just not how I play
I've broke my heart before so many times along the way
And I need you; I need you to help me
I don't understand the cards that they dealt me
And I can't explain, Just why I remain
Where the sand flows.
When the wind blows.
Where the rain goes
