Sturgill Simpson - Played Out lyrics

Trails gone cold And here comes the rain Been chewin on willow bark To hold back the pain Puttin juice n the wound Lettin' it drain Holes in my buckskin Still wet with blood stain Been pushing too hard And going insane Lord don't let this journey Be all in vain 'Cause I'm played out Down to my last draw This biting feeling Is startin' to gnaw It's the saddest picture You ever saw Played out and riding Ruff, ragged, and raw Staying up on the ridge Tryin to keep the high ground Shoulder is throbbin I'm wearin down Shamrocks head is bobbin And I don't hear the hound After five days and nights Following his sound Sam done went silent He's nowhere to be found Oh wait I see him Lying there on the ground Oh he's played out Thorn stuck and blood raw Torn plum all to pieces He's done worn off his paws Then ol' Sam let out His last dying bay call So I dug him a grave And covered it all
