Lyrics Don't Pay the Ferryman (Live) - Chris de Burgh
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
close
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"
Don't
pay
the
ferryman
Don't
even
fix
a
price
Don't
pay
the
ferryman
Until
he
gets
you
to
the
other
side
Don't
pay
the
ferryman
Don't
even
fix
a
price
Don't
pay
the
ferryman
Until
he
gets
you
to
the
other
side
Don't
pay
the
ferryman
Don't
even
fix
a
price
Don't
pay
the
ferryman
Until
he
gets
you
to
the
other
side
Don't
pay
the
ferryman
