| [00:40.02] |
Well I was shacked up down in the mobile |
| [00:41.10] |
With a girl from New York city |
| [00:48.15] |
She woke me up one night to tell me |
| [00:51.45] |
That we weren't alone. |
| [00:59.07] |
She said she saw the ghost |
| [01:01.32] |
of a woman staring at me |
| [01:10.11] |
I told her not to worry |
| [01:12.75] |
But in the morning when I woke up,She was gone |
| [01:22.23] |
So I headed on to Florida |
| [01:25.29] |
Where I tangled with some sailors |
| [01:34.17] |
And as I laid bloody on the wharf |
| [01:36.39] |
I cursed the ship they sailed on |
| [01:43.62] |
Wouldn't you know,twenty four hours later |
| [01:46.92] |
That ship sank into the ocean |
| [01:55.83] |
Disappearing like an unwanted memory |
| [02:00.54] |
Beneath the waves |
| [02:06.72] |
I guess it's 'cause, still waters run, |
| [02:09.69] |
Run deep in me |
| [02:09.99] |
Cause I got this crazy way... |
| [02:21.66] |
Crazy way I'm swimming in still waters. |
| [02:41.79] |
And I was woke up just before dawn |
| [02:45.21] |
By an old man crying in the rain. |
| [02:52.86] |
He was drunk and he was lonely |
| [02:56.13] |
And as he passed by he sang a hymn. |
| [03:04.17] |
And as I lay there listening, |
| [03:06.15] |
Well I almost joined him in that song... |
| [03:14.40] |
But instead I just held my peace, |
| [03:17.97] |
And waited 'till that old man moved along. |
| [03:27.27] |
Then later on that day about |
| [03:30.00] |
A quarter mile out of town, |
| [03:37.50] |
I found his body hanging in |
| [03:40.38] |
A grove of pines, swaying in the wind. |
| [03:49.23] |
And as he swang that rope sang another hymn |
| [03:50.91] |
To Jesus, |
| [03:59.97] |
And this time though I don't know why, |
| [04:03.06] |
I somehow felt inclined to sing along. |
| [04:11.37] |
I guess it's cause, still waters run, |
| [04:14.28] |
Run deep in me |
| [04:14.58] |
' Cause I got this crazy way... |
| [04:26.73] |
crazy way I'm swimming in still waters. |
| [04:30.15] |
Yes and there are projects for the dead |
| [04:48.99] |
And there are projects for the living... |
| [04:51.57] |
Thought I must confess sometimes |
| [04:59.97] |
I get confused by that distinction... |
| [05:07.92] |
And I just throw myself into the arms |
| [05:11.67] |
Of that which would betray me. |
| [05:19.56] |
I guess to see how far Providence |
| [05:23.79] |
Will stoop down just to save me. |
| [05:30.63] |
And it's all because, still waters run, |
| [05:31.41] |
Run deep in me... |
| [05:31.77] |
'Cause I've got this crazy way... |
| [05:46.08] |
Crazy way I'm swimming in still waters |
