Daddy's blue bandana
Wore me to Montana and back
It was a tiny little token that he
Picked up while roamin the tracks
All that I carry around
I should be burying now, but I'm bound
By the strings on the things
I keep movin, I'm movin around
I got some shirts my mama told me
Were hers when she was only a kid
Livin on the river like her
Brother and her sisters did
And I should let them go
Because the best of clothes do not last
But they got the strings to the things
That are tying my heart to her past
I got a seashell from an island
That I picked up while lying on sand
It cut into my fingers trying to
Hide it from the beach diggers' hands
And I would surely discard it
Were it not for the scar that it left
Now there is a string on that thing
That my body will not let me forget
I got pictures in a shoebox
Too old but too new not to pitch
From a restaurant in Baltimore
And views upon the Sagamore Bridge
They are just items, I'm sure
But they conjure up more than their weight
They got the strings to the things
And the people I ain't seeing these days
All my lover gives me gonna
Come to Mississippi one day
These sentimental feelings
Are gonna put me in my grave
Because the trinkets I own are
Sinking me and the boat that I row
And the strings on the things
That I own can't keep me afloat
Daddy's blue bandana
Wore me to Montana and back
It was a tiny little token that he
Picked up while roamin the tracks
All that I carry around
I should be burying now, but I'm bound
By the strings on the things
I keep movin, I'm movin around
By the strings on the things
I keep movin, I'm movin around.By the strings on the things
I keep movin, I'm movin around
