w RATTLIN'
Smoke don't rise

fuel don't burn
sun don't shine no more
Late one night

sorrow comes round
scratching at my door
But I cut my hands
and break my back

dragging this bag
of stones
'Til they bury me down
beneath the ground

with the dust and
rattlin' bones
Left my home and

left my love
caught on a rusty nail
Devil rose up

heavy with gold
my soul's not for sale
Then a holy man
in a house of God

he offered me a
book of prayer
But when I left my home

and left my love
I left my faith back there
Smoke don't rise

fuel don't burn
sun don't shine no more
Late one night

sorrow comes round
scratching at my door
But I cut my hands
and break my back

dragging this bag
of stones
'Til they bury me down
beneath the ground

with the dust and
rattlin' bones
Shut my eyes and

hang my head
darkness makes no sound
Climbing up a bottleneck

hurts on the way
back down
When a sadness falls
on the morning bird

I wonder what the
day will bring
But I shut my eyes
and hang my head

at least that bird
can sing
Smoke don't rise

fuel don't burn
sun don't shine no more
Late one night

sorrow comes round
scratching at my door
But I cut my hands
and break my back

dragging this bag
of stones
'Til they bury me down
beneath the ground

with the dust and
rattlin' bones
