Old Gray Ghost
Brenn Hill - Red Cliffs Press Music (BMI)
Verse 1:
It's hard to let go of the him he loves the most
When he comes down to the city like an old gray ghost
And he don't trust anybody and there's people all around
He's been mountain high for months and he's finally come on down
He's just an old coyote with his head and tail low
And he's wanderin' through the city wonderin' where the hell to go
With city people laughin' at him pointin' tellin' jokes
Sayin' that ain't just some old man it's the old gray ghost
Chorus:
And the old gray ghost has come down from Crystal River
And the water's cold there but this concrete makes him shiver
It's the lost look in the eyes of the ones who've taken over
And the old gray ghost is sure they're gone and lost forever
Verse 2:
Take another look at this weather forged old man
You can almost see the leather reigns cross through his hand
And a rifle on his shoulder and a bear tooth on his chest
And the long and empty gaze of a man who's seen the west
And the city folks just plunder on with smart phones neath their eyes
And they're sure they'll save the world like it's some new age battle cry
Ridin' bikes and lectric cars to cover their remorse
Laughin' and a pointin' at the one who rides a horse
Repeat Chorus
Bridge:
Oooooooh take it in
Oooooooh where are you goin'
Verse 3:
Don't just sit and stare at him hold your judgements close
That ain't just some old man it's the old gray ghost
And he lives on the mountain far away from all progress
And all he hears are echoes of the sins that you confess
And all he hears are echoes of the sins that you confess
