Too many staples on the pole
And I've got my hair all wrong
The car don't seem to start
And my keys are too long gone
But I've got the girl you keep wondering about
Somebody's gonna hollow my grave right out
But don't think I won't be there when I'm gone
'Cause I'll be ghost walking all night long
Deep worry in the town
When the train is calling downbound
In the murdered breeze of sin
I chase the stepping wit all done in
My woman is like a violin when she dances on the floor
Me in my speckled suit was always wanting more
Wanting more though all's gone wrong I'll be ghost walking all night long
On the last call
On the highway alone
With that picture of you upon my chest
Through our waters
And down the line
I left you behind
It was a special day
Back in the money parade
The sun was beaming down on us
I know you wanted me to stay
The curtains on the wall hid all my mistakes
You were like a river that everybody drank
I'm the invisible wheel that can't move on 'Cause I'll be ghost walking all night long
On the highway
On the last call alone
With that picture of you upon my chest
Through our waters
And down the line
I left you behind
