Midnight Ghost vol. 2

from Spogy EP by The Ruby Troupe

/

lyrics

I wrote everyone a letter
And I stamped that envelope
But I then lost it to the weather
And I forgot the words I wrote

Well I can hear that hearse a-rollin'
Like a freight train from the coast
And the chapel bells are tollin'
Just like a midnight ghost

Now the streets are filled with mourners
And I'm hiding in a shack
And there's a gypsy in the corner
He keeps sayin' "Watch your back"

Well I'm no good at keeping secrets
But if I talk, I know I'm toast
So I guess I'll keep on sneakin'
Just like a midnight ghost

Don't I always get in trouble
Any time i make a sound?
Still I think I prefer trouble
Over never being found

So I'm gonna run up to that jailhouse
I'm gonna brag and I'm gonna boast
And I'm gonna end up on the gallows
Just like a midnight ghost
