Give Up The Ghost Songtext / Lyric

Winter wind chills me to the bone

I got a woman who can't seem to stay home

Taxman's knockin' at my door

And it's high high high time I hit the shore



Morning dew meets me on my way

Gotta find the little lady a place to stay

And this feeling oh this feelin in my veins

Oh its high high high time I hit the shore



Take me to the river

Plunge me to the murky depths

Seal my fate

With a kiss from your cold dead lips



Come home to these people hangin' round

Lord knows, don't wanna have to let em down

See my baby, she's gone and left me for good

And it's high high high time i reached the shore






Take me to the river

Plunge me to the murky depths

Seal my fate

With a kiss from your cold dead lips

Give up the ghost that you're feelin' most of the time

You must know you're always always on my mind

And I'm reelin', feelin' old

The healin', is takin' hold

Give up the ghost that you're feelin' most of the time



She had a way with words

Cut like diamonds but smoother than pearls

And I don't really know where she's been

And I don't no I don't really care where she's been



They're gonna say I'm getting too old

Out in the pasture just lookin for gold

And this feelin' oh this feelin' in my veins

Don't really know don't really care where it came



And it's high high high time I reached

the shore
