These old gloves
The fingers torn
They can't quite keep me warm
The land I love
Has grown fed up
It welcomes me no more
The sleeping bag
I wish I had
It won't be found in the dark
Here on Rampart
The road where I drag my bones
For a blanket or warm heart
I spent the last family dollar
To build a fire
And I still can't start it
I spent the last family dollar
To build a fire
These old gloves
Soaked and worn
They're not mine anymore
I passed them off
With a cough
To a ghost of the 9th Ward
It welcomes me no more
I spent the last family dollar
To build a fire
And I still can't start it
I spent the last family dollar
To build a fire
