Fought across the border wars
fought across our destiny
We shot across the the stratosphere
the thin air bothered me
I looked around that whole damn place
for somewhere to lay my head
Then a man in the hood come shoulder me said
"You wishin' you was dead? "

Shake your bag o' bones when nobody's home
Shake your bag o' bones and you'll never be alone
Move your head with the dancin' dead
get in the game and play
Shakе your bones wherevеr you roam
be the one who got away, hey

Alright
Yeah, shake it
Whoa

Long way from home wherever you may roam
Take along and shake that bag o' bones

I packed my shit and headed east
where the sun was set to rise
They sent me west
with all their best no disgrace, compromise
I looked around that whole damn place
while the sun set on my face
Then the man in the hood, come shoulder me
said, "You come for another taste, boy? "

Shake your bag o' bones when nobody's home
Shake your bag o' bones and you'll never be alone
Move your head with the dancin' dead
get in the game and play
Shake your bones wherever you roam
be the one who got away, hey

Long way from home wherever you may roam
Take along and shake that bag o' bones
Long way from home and you'll never be alone
Take along and shake that bag o' bones

Keeping my pace, the long winding road
Grab that bag of bones, now shake it
Grab that bag of bones, now shake it
Sun on my face, the road full of holes
Grab that bag of bones, now shake it
Grab that bag of bones, now shake it

All of his horses, all of his men
All of his bones together again
All of his bones are together again

Shake your bag o' bones when nobody's home
Shake your bag o' bones and you'll never be alone
Move your head with the dancin' dead
get in the game and play
Shake your bones wherever you roam
be the one who got away, hey

That's right
Shake, shake it
Shake, shake

Long way from home wherever you may roam
Take along and shake that bag o' bones
Long way from home and you'll never be alone
Take along and shake that bag o' bones

Shake
Shake it
Shake
