Bedroll Lullaby Lyrics - Till Midnight - Chuck Ragan

Did you ever wander far from home? 

Far from what is safe and comfortable? 

Trading all your demons for the moon 

And sleeping till the sun makes it all true. 

I don't know how long I've been gone 

And I can't say when I'll get home. 

I'll keep my engine clean and strong 

And run this soul where it belongs. 

Somewhere I can hear a lonesome train 

Burning in a direction I can't name. 

I'll shut my eyes and lay these bones to rest 

Off the beaten path we all know best. 

I don't know how long I've been gone 

And I can't say when I'll get home. 

I'll keep my engine clean and strong 

And run this soul where it belongs. 

Maybe I'm just spinning wheels lost in a world 

That lost the thrill of living on the edge until 

It's time for the bedroll, until the ember's gone.
