All Sewn Up
[Verse 1]
All sewn up with bad tattoos
All bit up, nothin' to lose
Well, I've been a fool for oh-so long
It ain't nobody, they're home and gone
Now the Mississippi mud cakes my boots
I'm afraid that I might drown if I don't move
From these waters that run so deep
From these Southern waves with lazy heat
[Chorus]
Now I'm stuck
Ain't got much to show
With a little luck
Just watch me go
[Verse 2]
I got torn up knees and calloused fingertips
Broken vocal chords and busted lips
Well, this goddamn guitar is never quite in tune
I'd leave it behind if it weren't all I could do
[Chorus]
And now I'm stuck
Ain't got much to show
With a little luck
Just watch me go
[Post-Chorus]
Hell, I'm all sewn up with bad tattoos
Can't hide from the fated, fated truth
They follow me wherever I might move
All sewn up with bad tattoos
[Bridge]
Hmm, hmm, hmm
Hmm, hmm, mm-hmm
Hmm, hmm
Dun-dun, dun-dun
[Verse 3]
Now San Francisco sure sounds nice
Brooklyn might suit me just fine
'Cause life down here just moves so slow, it seems
Like a river barge pushin' upstream
[Chorus]
Now I'm stuck
Ain't got much to show
With a little luck
Just watch me go
[Post-Chorus]
Now I'm all sewn up with bad tattoos
Can't hide from the fated, fated truth
Well, they follow me wherever I might move
Now I'm all sewn up with bad tattoos
