Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Feelin' bad

Feelin' blue

Can't get out of my own mind

But I know how to sing about it

[Verse 2]

Ring of bone

A little lonely

I better hit the road, child

We can cry into the phone a while

[Verse 3]

Jubilee

Find me

Steady with your hope now

That little light's gotta last a while

[Verse 4]

Like an arrow

To the marrow

I know it feels like hell now

Till we make it to the other side

[Verse 5]

You want good news

You want sanctuary

When you try to get real

Oh, they break you on the wheel

You wanna move

You want sanctuary

That's all that I can offer to you

From the bottom, to the bone

To the bone

[Verse 6]

Get used to the

Bad news

It's all part of the show, child

Handsome Johnny had to go, child

[Verse 7]

What did you feel, brother

Bad dreams?

Well, there's something you should know now

Little things that'll cut you down

[Verse 8]

Ragged people

Hard times

And the lightning strikes the poorhouse

Rich man cries like a crocodile

[Verse 9]

Salvation

Despair

But the game that they taught me

Sometimes it feels it just ain't fair

[Verse 10]

You want good news

You want sanctuary

When you try to get real

Oh, they break you on the wheel

You wanna move

You want sanctuary

That's all that I can offer to you

From the bottom, to the bone

To the bone

[Verse 11]

Yeah, to the bone

Oh, to the bone

Yeah, to the bone

Oh, to the bone

Yeah, to the bone

Oh, to the bone

[Verse 12]

Feelin' bad

Feelin' blue

Can't get out of my own mind

But I know how to sing about it
