beat like a rug, ashed out and clubbed well it’s all for my betterment I’ll give you a rib with the marrow dried up it’s not much but a widow’s gift but in the right rays of the sun if you squint hard enough there can be only one like it I’d write you a song for all men to be one but I’d sing it from a place of pride I can sing over most and I’d gladly be the host but most often I just hang my head and cry there’s a song beneath the earth it resides within the dirt under the nails of a workin’ man drug in by the reign, of the crooked ways I think I wish I was in a mood to die Well life, it is good, no matter how far you sink sometimes sitting still is better than to try when you’re down in a hole and your heart’s weighed down like gold there is a hand that can reach you there |

Great song but I think some of the lyrics here are wrong. This is what I hear: Glinting gems in the concrete I paved One every couple of feet They got mixed up in the lyme and the sand Nobody noticed but me How could one little speck Make a difference to the rest Well it doesn't, no one cared Except me I payed my debt to the hotel unknown I drove so far, out of funds They kept me up, a family untied I shared their wall and their secret I can tell you this much There is no love when bankrupt Just an empty gutted house and a grave I got this limp from a favor I did Some folks don't like charity Copper pipe is worth more than you'd think There ain't no point blaming me How could one little speck Make a difference to the rest Well it doesn't, no one cared Except me How could one little speck Make a difference to the rest Well it doesn't, no one cared How could one little speck Make a difference to the rest Well it doesn't, never will Just like me |
