Ramshackle Man Songtext
von Deep Purple

My clothes don′t fit and I have no point of view
I got a bad reputation but I don't believe it′s true
I had something going but I blew it down the can
Not exactly what I planned
I'm a ramshackle man
That's what I am


I look like a joker but I feel like a one eyed jack
Shuffling around never get to the top of the park
I said to the dealer put the ace in my hand
But he couldn′t give a damn
I′m a ramshackle man
That's what I am

I sit down thinking bout the things I have to do
I start out fine then I pick up something new
Stumbled through the door that′s how it all began
Now it's buried in the sand
I′m a ramshackle man
That's what I am


The stars shine bright when the boys come out to play
Never feeling more than I′m feeling right here today
I used to be fresh but now I'm second hand
I do what I can
I'm a ramshackle man
That′s what I am
