lyrics

Wound up like a ball of wire
Can’t outrun a raging fire
I been gone a hundred days before
I been lost a thousand ways or more

Got a saint around my neck

But I ain’t the kind you can protect

I hate it when when you say
Those were the good old days …

Rattle down, rattle down
And tell me when I will be found
Rattle down, rattle down
All those days that came unwound


You said it’s time to leave
And I agreed
, I agreed
You said it’s time to leave

And I agreed, I agreed

I stopped laughing at your jokes
You stopped bumming almost all my smokes
I hate it when you say

There’s nothing (nothing) in your way …

You said it’s time to leave
And I agreed
, I agreed
You said it’s time to leave

And I agreed, I agreed

Rattle down, rattle down
And tell me when I will be found
Rattle down, rattle down
All those days that came unwound

Rattle down, rattle down

And tell me when I will be found
Rattle down, rattle down
And tell me when I will be found ...
