RAMSHACKLE MAN (Blackmore/Gillan/Glover)
My clothes don't fit and I have no point of view,
I got a bad reputation but I don't believe it's true.
I had something going but I blew it down the car,
Not exactly what I planned,
I'm a ramshackle man - that's what I am.
I look like a joker but I feel like a one eyed jack,
Shuffling around never get to the top of the park.
I said to the dealer put the ace in my hand,
But he couldn't give a damn...
I'm a ramshackle man - that's what I am.
I sit down thinking bout the things I have to do,
I start out fine then I pick up something new.
Stumbled through the door that's how it all began,
Now it's buried in the sand.
I'm a ramshackle man - that's what I am.
The stars shine bright when the boys come out to play,
Never feeling more than I'm feeling right here today.
I used to be fresh but now I'm second hand,
I do what I can...
I'm a ramshackle man - that's what I am.
