early james - rag doll lyrics

[verse 1]
let me tell you a tale no taller than i am
’bout an act i was in way back, turned out to be a sham
still had strings on my back at that point in time
she made me sing, wisecrack, and pantomime
the only warmth i felt was the spotlight shine

[verse 2]
wooden doll ain’t all that bad, coulda been the hull of a wrecked ship
a dreidel that couldn’t spin or a six+foot+deep coffin
but with her hand creepin’ up my spine, thoughts would never be mine
so i had to cut my strings, maybe lose the cape, make my escape
felt like cuttin’ a vein, but to her, i was cuttin’ the reins

[chorus]
’cause i ain’t your ragdoll, darlin’
no, siree, no, that ain’t me
i got bones and blood, though you may disagree
i hope you’re chokin’ on your water ’cause my thoughts ain’t made to order
no, siree

[verse 3]
so no matter how immobilizin’, lay off ventriloquizin’
live in a town without a leash law, learn how to use a hacksaw
despite this phantom pain and proper paranoia
despite the lies sprouted up into sequoias
well, i still meant at least half the things i told ya
[chorus]
but i ain’t your ragdoll, darlin’
no, siree, that ain’t me
i got bones and blood, though you may disagree
i hope you’re chokin’ on your water ’cause my thoughts ain’t made to order
no, siree
