Kris Kristofferson Crippled Crow song lyrics

Beggar standin' on the corner sing your song, sing it for a dime

Bring them all the pain you carried down the line

Your music's flying past their ears

Goin' through your troubles for the herd to follow

Out of tune ravings

Of the crippled crow, movin' down the ladder slow

Where your friends on knee will help you

And the cup of tin you carry is just the ticket to get you in

Beggar standin' on the corner dry your eyes, your time is nigh

The tears you're tastin' now are only salty time

Your music's lasted through the years

Goin' through your troubles for the herd to follow

The out of tune ravings

Of the crippled crow movin' down the ladder slow

Where your friends on knee will help you

The crown of thorns you're wearin' is just the ticket to get you in

The out of tune ravings

Of the crippled crow movin' down the ladder slow

Where your friends on knee will help you

The out of tune ravings

Of the crippled crow movin' down the ladder slow
