Don't Pay The Ferryman

It was late at night on the open road
 Speeding like a man on the run
 A lifetime spent preparing for the journey
 He is closer now and the search is on
 Reading from a map in the mind
 Yes there's the ragged hill
 And there's the boat on the river
 And when the rain came down
 He heard a wild dog howl
 There were voices in the night, ("Don't do it")
 Voices out of sight, ("Don't do it")
 Too many men have failed before
 "Whatever you do
 Don't pay the ferryman
 Don't even fix a price
 Don't pay the ferryman
 Until he gets you to the other side"
 ♪
 In the rolling mist then he gets on board
 Now there'll be no turning back
 Beware that hooded old man at the rudder
 And then the lightning flashed, and the thunder roared
 And people calling out his name
 And dancing bones that jabbered and a-moaned
 On the water
 And then the ferryman said
 "There is trouble ahead
 So you must pay me now," ("Don't do it")
 "You must pay me now," ("Don't do it")
 And still that voice came from beyond
 "Whatever you do
 Don't pay the ferryman
 Don't even fix a price
 Don't pay the ferryman
 Until he gets you to the other side"
 Yeah!
