lyrics

With the moon up in the trees
I looked and I was pleased
And the spirit of Tall Saul was in the canyon
Be they rattling bones
Or just shifting stones
I was bound to recognise my old companion

Moon hid behind a cloud
And I laughed out loud
I says "Saul he rides again, come back to haunt me
Heard you was dead…"
And voice in my head
Says "You ain't heard the ending of the story."

He says "What you got?"
And I says "What d'you need?
Feel like a little drink and company?”
Well we sat down and he
Showed me his wounds - sore even
By the light of that gentle moon

Well we drunk ’til we were filled
And he told how he was killed
And he told me 'bout the ending of the story
How he was badly betrayed
And how the trap was laid
And how he burned out in a blaze of good old glory

"Never mattered anyway,”
So he say
"Don't make no bones, don't make no reason to remember.
Now, you don't mind the time
Ain't no straight line
And you know where you are soon as you get there."

I says "Tell me secrets!”
And he says "Look alive
It's all there is and it's all right."
I says "Where you going?"
But he just stepped out of sight
With the bottle empty and the moonshine bright
