Ragged Company Songtext
von Janiva Magness

Oh lord, I think I′ve fallen, to my disbelieve
I'm cursing like a sailor, I′m lying like a thief
It's hard to heed the calling, from the bitter side of me
I'm blaming everybody else and no one coming clean
Oh lord, can′t you see, my thick skin wearing thin?
The demons of the lesser me, are backing me in
And those who gather around me, I′m watching them all leave
Cause I am my own ragged, company


So you could take a trip to China
Take a boat to Spain
Take a blue canoe all around the world
And never come back again
But travel it don't change a thing
It only make it worse
Unless the trip you′re taking is to change the crew ...
Cause every town got a mirror, every mirror still shows me
That I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged company

Won't you help me lord, won′t you help me lord?
Someone cut the chord and I'm falling down

[Instrumentals]

Oh it′s lonely, in all this mighty cold
I don't wanna live this way, I'm scared of growing old
It′s hard to heed the warning, when you cannot see the crime
The only way to remember is to forget in a ...
I′m scared to thread the red road, that leads to Galilea
Cause I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged company!
I am my own ragged company.
