Goodbye Mr. Mackenzie The Rattler
I'm coming down the line
I'm a rattling boy
Rattling through the countryside
I'm a rattling boy
I just live from day to day
I'm a rattling boy
Eatin' them, cheatin' them, on my way
I'm a rattling boy
I'm going down the line
I'm going to a better time
I'm going to a better place
I don't like people to know my face
I can help get those feet out of that clay
But I can't take you all the way
I'm as stationary as a stream
I am aimless in extreme
I hold what I need in my right hand
I'm a rattling boy
I do the work my gut demands
I'm a rattling boy
I'm going down the line
I'm going to a better time
I'm going to a better place
I don't like people to know my face
I can help get those feet out of that clay
But I can't take you all the way
If I could hold you
If I could love you
Then I would do
I can help get those feet out of that clay
But I can't take you all the way
I'm a rattling boy
Rattling boy
I can't take you all the way
I won't take you all the way
