Rattle my bones

Declan O’Rourke

[Intro / Chorus]
Rattle my bones, over the stones
I’m just a pauper that nobody owns
Rattle my bones, over the stones
I’m a poor pauper that nobody owns

Rattle my bones, over the stones
I’m just a pauper that nobody owns
Rattle my bones, over the stones
I’m a poor pauper that nobody owns

Rattle my bones, over the stones
I’m just a poor pauper that nobody owns
Rattle my bones, over the stones
I’m a poor pauper that nobody owns

[Verse 1]
Out of my family I was the last
My wife and my children before me they passed
Provenance chose to wean us from life
With the longest and slowest and bluntest of knives

[Chorus]
Rattle my bones, over the stones
I’m a poor pauper that nobody owns
Rattle my bones, over the stones
I’m just a poor pauper that nobody owns

[Verse 2]
To eat from cold fingers that work scarred and firmed
Twas me that was straight and the world that was cruel
It kept me alive too {many a day}[?]
Just to watch as I wasted pained[?] away

[Chorus ]
Rattle my bones, over the stones
I’m a poor pauper that nobody owns
Rattle my bones, over the stones
I’m just a poor pauper that nobody owns
Nobody owns!

Wooh!

[Verse 3]
The only music to play now I’ve died
Is the squeak of the wheels beneath where I lie
On the back of this cart that creaks and farts[?]
Pushed by saddest of backs, and brokest of hearts
And I pity the soul who pushes me off
But to live by the cart…

[Bridge]
But to live by the cart is to reap it’s reward [x4]

[Chorus / Outro]
Rattle my bones, over the stones
I’m just a poor pauper that nobody owns
Rattle my bones over the stones
I’m a poor pauper that nobody owns

Just a dead pauper that nobody owns…
