Ferryman (10 Year Version)

[00:06.95] A little boat breaks through the mist
[00:09.91] See in the darkest night the black flag is hissed
[00:14.37] A man is standing on the bow (I stop my breath)
[00:17.41] I'm not ready for my way into the realm of death
[00:21.86] The ferryman sings a mournful song
[00:24.68] I've to shut my eyes as we are sliding along
[00:29.39] We are close to the shore (it's time for his fee)
[00:32.48] Two on my eyes, one in my mouth counts three
[00:36.60] Ferryman, oh, ferryman, I cannot pay your price
[00:42.53] Ferryman, oh, ferryman, give me more time and I'll pay you twice
[00:48.91] Ferryman, oh, ferryman, I cannot pay your price
[00:54.61] Ferryman, oh, ferryman, I'm not ready for paradise
[01:01.36]
[01:23.78] Then he opens up his hand
[01:26.70] I'm a poor old sailor, why can't he understand?
[01:30.95] Suddenly, he pulls away (he pulls away)
[01:34.25] We're leaving the shore into the darkness he navigates
[01:38.65] Ferryman, oh, ferryman, I cannot pay your price
[01:44.35] Ferryman, oh, ferryman, give me more time, and I'll pay you twice
[01:50.38] Ferryman, oh, ferryman, I cannot pay your price
[01:56.62] Ferryman, oh, ferryman, I'm not ready for paradise
[02:03.53]
[02:49.32] I don't have no gold, but I'm a hard-working man
[02:52.03] I'd prefer to take your job as the ferryman
[02:56.88] As the ferryman
[02:59.83] As the...
[03:02.60] Ferryman, oh, ferryman, I cannot pay your price
[03:08.42] Ferryman, oh, ferryman, give me more time, and I'll pay you twice
[03:14.43] Ferryman, oh, ferryman, I cannot pay your price
[03:20.38] Ferryman, oh, ferryman, I'm not ready for paradise
[03:25.87] I'm not ready for paradise
[03:29.15]
