Ghosts of You and Me

[Verse 1]
Goodbye, Mary
Sweet mother mine
Grey as sky, gunmetal eyes
Beneath the needle tree
The ghosts of you and me, they
They sing the saddest song
Just one last breath and gone

[Verse 2]
Some say this highway seven
Is a long and lonesome road
Don't ask me, little Rosa
Which direction I am gone
I used to love
And take the southern special
Winter, summer, rise or fall
Now I ride the national

[Chorus 1]
If I had a black cat bone
Then I would not be alone
Julie, darling, dig my grave
The cemetery is my own

[Verse 3]
Goodbye, Mary
Sweet mother mine
Grey as sky, gunmetal eyes
Under a needle tree
The ghosts of you and me, they
They sang the saddest song
Just one last breath and gone

[Verse 4]
I used to love
And take the southern special
Winter, summer, rise or fall
Now I take the national
Some say this highway seven
Is a long and lonesome road
Don't ask me, little Rosa, which direction, I don't know

[Chorus 2]
If I had a black cat bone
Then I would not be alone
If I had a black cat bone
Then I would not be alone
