Ghost Story Lyrics - John Cale

It was seven o'clock in the morning 

Too late to handle the day 

At home it was only two thirty 

The skin on my wrists turning grey 

Stood up, wished us good luck 

He changed his attitudes twice 

The box in the corner shivered in fear 

He was tired and hungry for days. 

The next year she bought a new stomach 

From Liverpool made in Detroit 

Constantly passing old matches 

Some sentries and millionaires

Who did? Gallagher did 

The same old thing every time 

Gave up, more empty cups 

They were tired and hungry for nights. 

It made life a littl e easier 

To have Holland on the run 

It didn't take that long to forget her 

My old man and his gun 

Photos 

Rushed out, lions about 

Wasting away on advice 

A hundred and three, 400 or more 

It'll haunt you for the rest of your life
