RAG AND BONE
(D. Courtney)


Steve Ellis - 1977


Once I used to be a millionaire
Gave it all up for you, baby
Nothin' owned I wouldn't share
Just to be next to you, baby
They all told me you were out to win
Set me up and let me down again

Rag and bone
You always leave me standin' 
Outside on my own
Then you turn away

Rag and bone
You see me breakin' down
To nothin', all I own
I threw it all away

I've seen changes in my life
They were all down to you, baby
I fought so hard to reach the heights
For you to push me back on down, baby
They all told me you were out to win
You set me up and let me down again

Rag and bone
You always leave me standin' 
Outside on my own
Then you turn away

Rag and bone
You see me breakin' down
To nothin', all I own
I threw it all away

Rag and bone
You always leave me standin' 
Outside on my own
Then you turn away

Rag and bone
You see me breakin' down
To nothin', all I own
I threw it all away

(Instrumental Break)

Rag and bone

I threw it all away

Rag and bone
You always leave me standin' 
Outside on my own
Then you walk away
