Roll the Bones Lyrics


Yeah so it goes
Yeah so it goes
That sweet heirloom
Them abbey stonesOh take a chance and roll the bones
Cut off your hair
Unplug your phoneYeah and sell your belongings
All your clever drawings try to make a dollar
From the grave
But whose to blameWell so it goes
Yeah so it goes
Them city boys in country clothes
Oh take a chance and roll the bones
Go crash your car
Burn down your homeYeah try to forget all your enemies and debts
Yeah try to forget all them enemies and debts
They'll just chase you round and give you sour dreamsYeah so it seemsYeah so struggle all you like
Yeah put up the good fight
They say someday everybody dies alone

Yeah struggle all you like
Put up the good fight
They say someday everybody dies alone
But hey
Who knows
Yeah hey who knows
Yeah hey who really knows

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

As Shakey Graves, Rose-Garcia from Austin, Texas, He plays a gnarly composite of blues and folk as a one-man-band of epic sonic proportions. The sound emitted from his hollow body guitar, mildly distorted amp and suitcase drum belie the young singer’s lean frame. He fingerpicks while keeping time with a double-pedal kick drum, hitting a snare fitted into his suitcase drum and a tambourine fashioned to its side. And when he sings, Rose-Garcia unleashes an unearthly howl.
