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
