Restin’ Bones Primus

[Verse 1]
Came up on a worried man
Asked him if he had a light
He reached on down, dug in his shoe
Figured in his sock he might
He asked if he could come and join
At what we was partakin' in
I says, "Ol' soul if you got a match
You also got yourself a friend"

[Verse 2]
The smoke drew hard but laid in good
The neon gave us extra shine
We passed around a flask of Knockando
And a half litre bottle of wine
The worried man dropped down to his knees
And let out with a somber groan
He looked up to me and when I asked, he said
"I'm just restin' my bones"
I’m restin’ my bones
I’m just restin’ my bones

[Verse 3]
I looked down at him, and him up at me
Then a smile rose above his chin
He grabbed me by the arm and pulled me down
Said, " Listen to me now my friend"
When I was your age I did it all
More than many men could do
Now my possessions are the ones I wear on my back
And this lighter I keep in my shoe
That's why I'm restin' my bones
That’s why I’m restin’ my bones
Restin’ my bones
