a wrung-out rag of a man

A few times...

I was a wrung-out rag of a man

In need of a good iron

a good squaring cleaning reappointing
A few times...

I remember thinking
I need something good to happen
And you know what?
Each time it did...
Luck and reward and coincidence and good good times
Gave me that iron

That squaring that clean that reapponting
And pretty soon I was
Pretty spruce
Back in it
Back up again
And back having fun
