lyrics

One of these days, I ain’t gonna say
The first thing that comes into my head that’ll be taken the wrong way
‘Cause half the time I’m talking, and the other half I’m being told
To make amends for what I’ve said and patch up that hole

Patch up that hole, patch up that hole
Before you burn that bridge, and you’re left in the cold
I didn’t mean to hurt you, I’m sorry you know
I’m gonna get out my needle, and patch up that hole

When you’ve placed all your bets, and it’s time the cards were played
I’m always the first to lay my hand down on the grade
But when the stakes are raised I’m always the last to fold
And I’m left wondering where my money’s gone so I’d better patch up that hole

Patch up that hole, patch up that hole
Before your money’s all gone, and you’re left in the cold
Don’t gamble with good fortune, only gamble with gold
I’m gonna get out my needle, and patch up that hole

I’ve been walking a long time, my dreams I’ve sold
I’m gonna get out my needle, and patch up that hole
The words are brand new, but the story’s old
I’m gonna get out my needle and patch up that hole
I’m gonna get out my needle and patch up that hole
