Sunken Rags Lyrics

Words & Music by Marc Bolan
Recorded by T.Rex, 1972

It's a shame in sunken rags,
The way you lay me down,
It's a shame the way you hide me
In the 'lectric schoo-oo-ool.
I was brave to call your name,
Out in the alley-way.
It's a shame the way you treat me

Like a foo-ool.
So ride on, fight on.
Love is gone the wind it's gonna beat your sins.
Fight on, right on
Love is gone the wind it's gonna beat your sins.
Oo-Ooh
Oo-Oo Oo-Oo Oo-Ooh

It's a game with broken brain,
The way you smile on me.
I'm a bird that rides upon
The wind of fools.
It's a shame how you unzip my
Winter poetry.
It's a shame the way you treat me
Like a foo-ool.
So ride on, fight on.
Love is gone the wind it's gonna beat your sins.
Fight on, right on
Love is gone the wind it's gonna beat your sins.
Oo-Ooh
Oo-Oo Oo-Oo Oo-Ooh
So ride on, fight on.
Love is gone the wind it's gonna beat your sins.
Fight on, right on
Love is gone the wind it's gonna beat your sins.
Oo-Ooh, oh yeah.
