Somebody Pick Up My Pieces |
| Somebody pick up my pieces |
| I’m scattered everywhere |
| Help me |
| Put myself back together |
| Put me somewhere |
| Way over there |
| I wanna be taken out |
| Of contention |
| I surrender my crown |
| Somebody pick up my pieces |
| I think I’m comin' down |
| Well |
| I sure thought I had it |
| But Lord |
| It’s looks like it had me |
| 'Cause the thing |
| I thought was heaven |
| Was just falling debris |
| I may not be crazy |
| But I sure |
| Got a hell of a start |
| Somebody come here |
| And help me |
| Pick up my pieces |
| I think |
| I’m fallin' apart |
| But don’t follow |
| My footsteps |
| Step on over my trail |
| 'Cause the road |
| Is too dark narrow |
| Your footin' could fail |
| And the fall to the bottom |
| It could tear you all apart |
| And they’ll be here |
| Pickin' up pieces of you |
| And your heart |
| Don’t you follow |
| My footsteps |
| Step right over my trail |
| 'Cause the road |
| Is too darn narrow |
| And your footin' could fail |
| And the fall to the bottom |
| It could tear you apart |
| You’ll be right back here |
| Pickin' up pieces of you |
| And your heart |
| Will be here pickin' up |
| Pieces of you |
| And your heart |
