Dark n drearys playing on my mind
A flathead ford on a nowhere road... Lost in time
That man Elmo sure does take my brain away
Phantom ford on a monochrome road ... rattlin on its way
Passin under willows branches... passed a house of white
I see a gauge upon the dashboard .. flicker in the night
See the man he's the driver.. black suit black hat
Sightless eyes drivin blind... he aint comin back
Feel the wind outside ... it's starting to rain
I've seen this scene 1000 times .. always the same
That smell of old cigars... mixed with leather
Man sold his soul to the blues..he's gone.... forever
On a pitch black road we're drivin'.. on a moonless night
Like a scene from the silver screen played in black n white
See the man he's the driver.. he can't see me
He sold his soul dead long ago.. he could be me..
Feel the wind outside ... starting to rain
I've seen this scene 1000 times .. always the same
That smell of old cigars... mixed with leather
Man sold his soul to the blues ..he's gone.... forever
Lights himself a cigarette and .. worlds flashing by
Reflected glow from a vintage bezel... got my wondering eye
Floating out through the back of the car ...I watched it fade away
Phantom ford in monochrome world ...rattling on its way..
