Mr. Ferryman I've been trodding on the shore for way too long Only got a penny Can you help me cross this river? Float me like a feather Back to home Mr. Ferryman Got no baggage, no companion I'm a mess I can't feel my fingers Every season sings like winter But before I go Can I make one request? When life feels like a noose Cut me loose and float me gently out to sea Please don't wake me up For if you do I might be stuck inside my dreams Undertaker man Can't you drop me even more than six feet deep? Seen so much beneath these skies I'm wondering what the view is like Tucked beneath a comforter of peat When you're digging, man Won't you make sure that the ground is packed real tight? Don't let me escape my grave To see just what a wreck I've made I'll forget it all within a night When life feels like a noose Cut me loose and float me gently out to sea Please don't wake me up For if you do I might be stuck inside my dreams Mr. Preacher, man Won't you please exaggerate my eulogy? Lord, I know it's sinful if you lie about my story But I need to be remembered as the man My parents wanted me to be When life feels like a noose Cut me loose and float me gently out to sea Please don't wake me up For if you do I might be stuck inside my dreams If you do, I might be stuck
