Mike Doughty - Grey Ghost lyrics

rate me

Oh in the grey

Grey ghost that I call home

In the grey

Stony lonesome I call home

In the grey

Grey ghost that I call home

In the grey, grey ghost that I call home

Oh he will not

Walk out the river now

He will not walk out the river

He will not walk out the river, singing

Don’t fall through the stars

Don’t fall through them

Don’t fall through the stars

Don’t fall through them

On the docks in Memphis, with the boombox, nodding out, singing

Don’t fall through the stars

Don’t fall through them

Don’t fall through the stars

In the trail of the barge and the light upon the brine

He has staked these thoughts and the force is undivided, singing

Don’t fall through the stars

Don’t fall through them

Don’t fall through the stars

Don’t fall through them

Sleepy-eyed, the man is wading out into the night, singing

Don’t fall through the stars

Don’t fall through them

Don’t fall through the stars

Embracing some hard-luck citizen

Disgraced like some strange Bob Balaban

And placing your heels down in the sand

And

In the grey

Grey ghost that I call home

In the grey

Stony lonesome I call home

In the grey

Grey ghost that I call home

In the grey, grey ghost that I call home
