When you see that ship it Is the ship you can see When the grey ship calls It is a callin for me I thought it would come I thought it would come from Further North than that
Blue sky is silver blue sky is grey When the grey ship calls I am leaving today I thought it would come
When you see that ship it Is the ship you can see When the grey ship calls It is a callin for me I thought it would come I thought it would come from Further North than that
(I hear a choir, I hear a symphony)
My mother with soft hands My sister with none left My best friend from long time My mouth full of glass
The strangers with wet hair My old aunt a spinster I feel all them calming I've run out of air
I hear all them calling The pearly gates We've come all gone together We've all gone to sleep
I hear a choir, I hear a symphony Great grandmother lived on the prairie Nothin and nothin and nothin and nothin I got the same feelin inside of me
