Ragged Words Lyrics

These ragged words
These midnight eyes
These dust covered boots
This bent up l***
These young boy dreams
These mannish woes
These driftwood arms
These bottle lips
This train whistle voice
This eager love
This uncut beard
These achin' arms

This longest look
This played-out soul
This grain of truth
This musicians' curse
This thorny kiss
This mangled path

This old truck groan
This steadiness
These oil dark eyes
This lonely guess
This full moon moan
This highway smile

This lost dog heart
These reasons why
This entangled sleep
All these shows I play
This rock and roll vein
This blue collar mouth
This angel's idea
This road map home
These chain link prayers
This father's word
This guitar money
This red light cigarette

This one desire
This bedroom rain
This blue electricity
These choke-cold bones
These optimistic regrets
This bus station wave
This sand in my name
This bare nakedness
This prize fighter's jab
This falling grace
This antique tongue
This Midwest deal

This suitcase goodbye
These gas pedal eyes
This foolish hope
This small town stare
This strangled touch
These cowboy hands

Wherever you are
Whenever you want
It is what it is
It's sorrow and bliss
Your head on my chest
Under a sky this blue
Wherever you are
This song is for you
