The cigarette hung from an old man’s mouth
There was a mile of ash pointing towards the south
He turned tired eyes and looked on up to me
He told me, “Son this is something I hope you’ll never be.”
He said, “I lost my wife when I was Forty-two
and I felt my heart break right into two.
Then I spent twenty years out on the sea
but, now it seems old Ahab’s got no use for me.
So I took to land and I lost my home.
My children all left me, Lord I am so alone.
And now I spend my nights out in the streets,
dreaming of days of silken sheets.”
Cold was the night, hard was the ground.
Cold was the night, hard was the ground.
