The Days of Pearly Spencer

[00:16.32] A tenderment, a dirty street
[00:17.49] Walked and worn by shoeless feet
[00:18.93] Inside it's long and so complete
[00:20.82] Watch by shivering sun
[00:25.87] Old eyes in a small child's face
[00:27.19] Watching as the shadows race
[00:28.80] Through walls and cracks and leave no trace
[00:31.11] Daylight's brightness shuns
[00:35.03] The days of pearly spencer
[00:41.12] The race is almost run
[00:52.00] Nose pressed hard on frosted glass
[00:55.29] Gazing as the swollen mass
[00:57.66] On concrete fields where grows no grass
[00:59.46] Stumbles blindly on
[01:04.04] Iron trees smother the air
[01:05.41] But withering they stand and stare
[01:07.47] Through eyes that neither know nor care
[01:09.51] Where the grass is gone
[01:14.82] The days of pearly spencer
[01:20.74] The race is almost run
[01:29.04] Pearly where's your milk white skin?
[01:34.31] What that stubble on your chin?
[01:36.35] It's buried in the rot gut gin
[01:38.48] You played and lost not won't
[01:41.63] You played a house that can't be beat
[01:45.06] Now look your head's bowed in defeat
[01:46.15] You walked too far along the street
[01:48.49] Where only rats can run
[01:51.62] The days of pearly spencer
[01:58.86] The race is almost run
[02:17.98] The days of pearly spencer
[02:18.85] The race is almost run
[02:31.96]
