Restin' Bones

Came up on a worried man, asked him if he had a light.

He reached on down, dug in his shoe, figured in his sock he might.

He asked if he could come and join, at what we was partakin' in.

I says,"Ol' soul if you got a match, you also got yourself a friend".The smoke drew hard but laid in good, the neon gave us extra shine.

We passed around a flask of Knockando, and a half litre bottle of wine.

The worried man dropped down to his knees, and let out with a somber groan.

He looked up to me and when I asked, he said,"I'm just restin' my bones".I looked down at him, and him up at me, then a smile rose above his chin.

He grabbed me by the arm and pulled me down, said," Listen to me now my friend".

When I was your age I did it all, more than many men could do,

now my possessions are the ones I wear on my back, and this lighter I keep in my shoe.That's why I'm restin' my bones.
