Artist/Band: Guy Clark
Lyrics for Song: Bag Of Bones
Lyrics for Album: The Dark [2009]



He said his hip talks to him when it's ready to rain

He's had a little nip and he's feeling no pain

When he gets like this, he feels like talkin

He said he took some shrapnel at the bay of pigs

He lost two fingers on a gulf oil rig

You gotta watch him, or he'll take off walkin

Some folks say he's lost his mind, but he's just running out of time



[Chorus]

He said, this old bag of bones ain't really me

There's a lot more standing here than what you see

He said my back is bending low but my spirits flying free

This old bag of bones ain't really me



He said I live each day like it's my last

Time won't keep, it goes so fast

You better do the best that you can do



He said, life's a tune you whistle in the dark

When you get it right, you get a little spark

And the sun comes up and it all dawns on you



[Chorus]



He said, this old bag of bones ain't really me

There's a lot more standing here than what you see

He said my back is bending low but my spirits flying free

This old bag of bones ain't really me



He said my back is bending low but my spirits flying free

This old bag of bones ain't really me

This old bag of bones ain't really me
