The Deader - Two Gallants[00:00:01]
So now let me tell you about this girl of mine[00:00:23]
Hard like all men's dreams in the days of '49[00:00:29]
I turn hollow no me more swallow[00:00:34]
Fast only she breaks[00:00:37]
But distance keeps her miles or meters[00:00:40]
What difference does it make[00:00:43]
'Cause here they come again to repossess my dreams[00:00:46]
Child don't play yourself things are never what they seem[00:00:51]
A bridge a river a pale moon sliver city shines[00:00:57]
So bright[00:01:01]
But to my despair I return where they sleep out[00:01:02]
Every night[00:01:06]
But the girl I love is oh so oh so[00:01:09]
Far away[00:01:13]
And I wonder can she hear me as I go[00:01:16]
Through my day[00:01:20]
Oh now the ragin' sea she laps upon my door[00:01:24]
I'll round a thousand horns just to drown upon her[00:01:29]
Shore[00:01:33]
Blood red roses go down moses oh billowin' sails[00:01:35]
Those so weak willed guts all sea filled throw them[00:01:40]
O'er the rails[00:01:44]
Boys slacken up the jib and sing a hearty song[00:01:47]
We've been driftin' driftin' for far too long[00:01:52]
I take no care me I'm so bare breasted on[00:01:58]
The bow[00:02:01]
Scabbed and weathered skin of leather who's the deader now[00:02:03]
But the girl I love is oh so oh so[00:02:10]
Far away[00:02:14]
And I wonder can she hear me as I go[00:02:16]
Through my day[00:02:20]
It's so long lady angel I guess I'll say goodbye[00:02:22]
But I do believe I'm aging right before your eyes[00:02:29]
Wash up on her coast not a nickel to my[00:02:37]
Name[00:02:41]
Sold my sold my sold my gold watch and chain[00:02:43]
Enough to hire a band of lyres to march me[00:02:48]
On my way[00:02:52]
Through hills and valleys streets and alleys up to her[00:02:54]
Open gates[00:02:57]
But the girl I love is oh so oh so[00:03:01]
Far away[00:03:05]
And I wonder can she hear me as I go[00:03:07]
Through my day[00:03:11]
It's so long lady angel I guess I'll say goodbye[00:03:13]
But I do believe I'm aging right before your eyes[00:03:20]
Cock crow in the morning heard it loud and clear[00:03:27]
Asked her for to marry she answer with a tear[00:03:33]
Boy you have my heart and I know you always[00:03:40]
Will[00:03:44]
But that ain't enough to hold me 'cause love don't[00:03:46]
Pay the bills[00:03:50]
I turned away in shame for all my days in[00:03:52]
Vain[00:03:57]
Guess I'll just drag on no one loves you till[00:03:58]
You're gone[00:04:02]
Let the river be my guide let the desert be[00:04:04]
My bride[00:04:08]
Till my heart turns to steel till I no longer[00:04:10]
Feel[00:04:15]
But the girl I love is oh so oh so[00:04:16]
Far away[00:04:20]
And I wonder can she hear me as I go[00:04:24]
Through my day[00:04:29]
It's so long lady angel I guess I'll say goodbye[00:04:33]
But I do believe I'm aging right before your eyes[00:04:42]
