Peter & Michael - Hookerman (Legend of the Ghost Light) Lyrics

Along the valley leading to Califon
On the Railroad track at night I saw a sight
I looked up I swear I saw a man with a lantern in his hand
And my face it quickly turned a ghostly white

There's a story that I've heard many people know
On a full moon night you will see his light
Hookerman do you see me Or do I just see you
Searching ever lonely doing what you do

Hooker Man with his light Searching out in the night
My girl and I froze at the sight of the Hookerman
Legend of the ghost light

There's a train a coming I don't know what to do
Look out Hookerman I worry for you
Your story's now a legend local people tell
Of the night long ago on this track here you fell

Now is there something I can do to help you on your way
If I believe in you would it make your day
Hookerman so many lovers owe you thanks
For the games the hi-jinks and the pranks

Hooker Man with his light Searching out in the night
My girl and I froze by the sight of the Hooker Man Legend of the ghost light
Hooker Man with your light shining bright in my life
My girl and I froze by the sight of the Hooker Man Legend of the ghost light

Hooker Man you found fame life after life we know your name
Hooker Man shining bright Hookerman
Legend of the ghost light Legend of the ghost light
Legend of the ghost light Legend of the ghost light
Legend of the Ghost light ghost lite, ghost lite
