Ray's Vast Basement - Black Cotton lyrics



I was drowning in the voices, a ringin' in my ear,
the smell of clouds of sawdust, foamin' jars of beer.
The noise kept getting louder as I lay there on the mat,
my eyes swollen shut and a ten-count in the back.

Black cotton
on the steps
October
frozen man
I'll bring you
back again
Oh, startin' over

My lungs, they found their reason, the blood began to flow,
my left eye crackin' open as I grabbed onto the rope.
That pretty boy was smiling, waving to the crowd,
as I got my feet beneath me and my legs all straightened out.

Black cotton
on the steps
October
frozen man
I'll bring you
back again
Oh, startin' over

I knew he'd try to close me with that wide right hook,
so I made like I was blinded, and pretended not to look.
As he wound up like a kid on a schoolyard mound,
I crossed him with a left, and laid him cold across the ground.

Black cotton
on the steps
October
frozen man
I'll bring you
back again
Oh, startin' over.
Oh, startin' over.
