lyrics

(mischief party time)
Let everyone know
That sadness comes and goes
You’re going to see a little bit of death
On the side of the road,
Side of the road, side of the road
A little bit of death on the side of the road

Well you can’t speak for me
I’ve hidden the meaning
When everything’s said and done
I count myself the lucky one

And I won’t give up the ghost
I just hang on and I stay afloat
My daddy always smiled and my momma never moped
So I won’t give up the ghost

She tells me of her years
Liberated from fears
She shakes a fist in the air
And knows that time takes care

Cause I won’t give up the ghost
I just hang on and I stay afloat
My daddy always smiled and my momma never moped
So I won’t give up the ghost

Is it worth the work?
Well I don’t know
Whatcha goin’ find down in that hole
Well my daddy he always smiled
And my momma never moped, 1 2 3 4

Well I won’t give up the ghost
I just hang on and I stay afloat
My daddy always smiled and my momma never moped
So I won’t give up the ghost

No I won’t give up the ghost
I just hang on and I stay afloat
My daddy always smiled and my momma never moped
So I won’t give up the ghost
