Ghost Of The Gang - Acoustic Version
Quelle: Spotify
Jimmy died on his couch yesterday.
A friend of his ex-wife called me to say
He just gave it to God, slipped from the living
With bills piling up and a back that was givin in.
It's been years since I've seen anyone.
Now I'm just sitting here in the dark
Stalling out in my car.
Wishing I could bum a light
From the ghost of the gang tonight.
Kathy lost a nephew under the wheels of a train
In a mid-day suicide, after a losing streak
He just stood on the tracks and gave it to glory.
I never called her to say I m sorry, my friend.
It's been years
But I'm thinking about you and all of your tears
And I'm sitting here in the dark
Afraid to make a stupid call
Wishing I could bum a light
From the ghost of the gang tonight
Tonight I'm gonna take that ride
For the years we missed and the friends that died.
Sideswiped baby on the road somehow
With a pack of dreams that just weren't allowed.
Maybe you're walking those halls all quiet and sad
Or sitting in the the dark all scared and mad.
Feel my hand reach across and don't forget
Where we come from baby cause there's truth in it.
Yeah, we huddled against the cold in those days
By the light of the fire in a pep rally haze
With a smoking lounge pass and a reason for living.
No matter how bad it got, we wouldn't give in to it.
It's been years
Since I've seen anyone and cried these tears.
Now I'm just sitting here in the dark
Stalling out in my car.
Wishing I could bum a ride
From the ghost of the gang tonight.
Ghost of the gang tonight.
