Fought across the border wars, fought across our destiny
We shot across the stratosphere, the thin air bothered me
I looked around that whole damn place, 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
