lyrics

Oh Precious Cargo

Ol papers under glass
Passin' on names to namesakes
Two livin' it up to snuff
One broken heart to another

Don't let your arms grow numb
Reachin' back and forward
Some ol sound said spoken for
One broken heart to another

Deliver son oh precious cargo
I'm down to one broken heart to another
Deliver son oh precious cargo
Love bares a sober scoldin'

Heart throbbin' needy
Savin' up for a rollin' holler
Goodness gracious straightback east
One broken heart to another

(Chorus)

Now them glory clothes don't fit
In a closet mansion uptown
Good for nothin' documents
For one broken heart to another

(Chorus)

Ol papers under glass
Passin' on names to namessakes

(Chorus)
(Chorus)

Love bares a sober scoldin'...
