Ragged Company Lyrics
O Lord, I think Im falling to my disbelief
Im cursing like a sailor and lying like a thief
Its hard to heed the calling from the better side of me
When Im blaming everybody else and no ones coming cleanO Lord, can You see my thick skin wearing thin ?
And the demons of a lesser me are beckoning me in
Those who gathered 'round me Im watching them all leave
'Cause I am my own ragged companySo you can take a trip to China or take a boat to Spain
Take a blue canoe around the world and never come back again
But traveling dont change a thing, it only makes it worse
Unless the trip you take is in to change your cruel courseCause every towns got a mirror
And every mirror still shows me
That I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged companyWon't You help me, Lord?
Won't You help me, Lord?
Someone cut the cord
And I'm falling down againOh, its lonely, Lord, its mighty cold
And I dont wanna live this way
Afraid of growing oldIts hard to heed the warning when you cannot see the crime
The only way I can remember is to forget in a rhyme
And Im scared to tread the red road that leads to Galilee
'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
