all sewn up   with bad tattoos   all bit up   nothin to lose   well ive been a fool for oh so long      now the mississippi mud cakes my boots   im afraid that i might drown if i dont move   from these waters that run so deep   from these southern ways and lazy heat   now im stuck   aint got much to show   with a little luck   just watch me go      ive got torn up knees and caloused fingertips   broken vocal chords and busted lips   this goddamn guitar is never quite in tune   id leave it behind if it werent all i could do   now im stuck   aint got much to show   with a little luck   just watch me go   hell im all sewn up with bad tattoos   cant hide from the faded truth   well it follows me wherever i might move   all sewn up with bad tattoos      well san francisco sure sounds nice   and brooklyn might suit me just fine   well life down here just moves so slow it seems   like a river barge pushin upstream   now im stuck   aint got much to show   with a little luck   just watch me go   now im all sewn up with bad tattoos   cant hide from the faded truth   well it follows me wherever i might move   im all sewn up with bad tattoos
