lirik lagu ghost of john – shank painters
[intro]
creaking at the gate and shadows in the hull
somethings stirring down below the boneyard hall
do you hear the muscle whistling around the cabin door?
snuff the candle out, your silence i implore
[verse 1]
i’ll tell you, love, a tale
of me days long before
while [?]
it was on that fateful night
we were forced for to flee
when a fire caught our sails in the middle of the sea
[chorus]
oh, have you seen the ghost of john?
long, white bones with his skin all gone
(vocalizations)
wouldn’t it be chilly with no skin on?
[verse 2]
now, down in the brig with thе maggots and the flies
and the rats stood a man who was doomеd to die
john blackheart was his name and a mutineer was he
though he screamed in all the fury
no one heard his plea
“don’t let me die below
in this h*llish blazing fire
i’ve a message for my son before i expire
of a fortune i have hidden
else he’ll die in poverty
and i’ll drag you all to h*ll if you’ll not set me free.”
[chorus]
oh, have you seen the ghost of john?
long, white bones with his skin all gone
(vocalizations)
wouldn’t it be chilly with no skin on?
[verse 3]
when we made it to the shore and we found we’d left behind
our prisoner to be sure
no one paid much mind
but a year to the day
when that terror*stricken night
our captain disappeared beneath the pale moon light
and year after year
as this tale has spread
and our crew to four wild winds have fled
somethings coming for us all
and it’s hopeless, don’t you see?
first our captain, then each crewman
now it’s only me
[chorus]
oh, have you seen the ghost of john?
long, white bones with his skin all gone
(vocalizations)
wouldn’t it be chilly with no skin on?
(vocalizations)
wouldn’t it be chilly with no skin on?
i’ll tell you how it feels when i’m dead and gone
