Crippled Crow
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Beggar standin' on the corner sing your song
Sing it for a dime
Bring them all the pain you carried down the line
Your music's flying past their ears
Goin through your troubles for the herd to follow
The out of tune ravings of the crippled crow
Movin' down the ladder slow
Where your friends on knee will help you
And the cup-o tin you carry
Is just a ticket to get you in
Beggar standin' on the corner dry your eye
You're tiring now
The tears you're tastin'now are only salty time
Your music's lasted thru the year
Goin' through your troubles for the herd to follow
The out of tune ravings of the crippled crow
Movin' down the ladder slow
Where your friends on knee will help you
And the crown of thorns you're wearing
Is just a ticket to get you in
The out of tune ravings of the crippled crow
Movin' down the ladder slow
Where your friends on knee will help you
The out of tune ravings of the crippled crow
Movin' down the ladder slow
Where your friends on knee will help you
