All I got left to my name these days
Is some leather, some dust, and some steel

I rattle around this ol' house like a ghost
Haunting myself
I sleep on the couch these days,
Get upstairs when I'm able
Two years now since my love passed
More like a room in my heart than in the house
His picture sits on the bedside table,
Dust so think it's part of the memory
I wipe it away and it falls
like gentle snow in the sunlight
I stroke my fingers along that smiling cheek
Gently kiss the glass
I get back downstairs when I'm able,
When my vision clears

Poor lucky, I loved that old horse
Groomed and rode him every day
I hated when he got old
Went down with him when he collapsed,
We kicked up a cloud of dust
Looked like blizzard snow in the sunlight
That leather saddle's all I got left of him,
That and this bum leg to remember him by.

Got this here guitar, it's my company now
Strings of steel play pretty chords
When my fingers're up to it
They sing along till I can't play no more

One by one things fall away
I get light as a feather dreaming of them
But I'm content and happy,
I get through the day,
Long as I got my leather, dust and steel

One by one things fall away
I get light as a feather dreaming of them
But I'm content and happy,
I get through my day,
Long as I got my leather, my dust and my steel
