Lyrics

Rags old iron rags old iron Rags old iron rags old iron I heard an old rag man now making his rounds Comin right down my alley with sorrowful sounds Crying rags old iron and pulling his cart I asked him how much he'd give me for my broken heart Rags old iron rags old iron All he was buying was just rags and old iron I asked that old rag man how much he would pay For a heart that was broken when you went away For a burnt out old love light that no longer beams And a couple of slightly used second hand dreams Rags old iron rags old iron All he was buying was just rags and old iron Whatever he'd offer I would happily take For the big empty promises you used to make For the memories of you that are no longer sweet I just wish he could haul them all off down the street Rags old iron rags old iron All he was buying was just rags and old iron When love doesn't last then how much is it worth? It was once my most precious possession on earth Now I asked that old rag man if he'd like to buy But he just shook his head and continued to cry Rags old iron rags old iron All he was buying was just rags and old iron Rags old iron rags old iron Rags old iron rags old iron
