Joe met Daisy on the day of the dead
 
When he woke up drunk
                D
And handcuffed to a dirty double bed
Eb                              Bb
She said Joe you should be wary of
               D
The women you pretend to love

And she wrapped a plastic bag

Around his head

And the Ferryman only deals in cash
Bb                       D
Oh, your time is coming fast

With a boy from Baton Rouge

Jane met Ginger over dinner in July
 
Ginger said that she'd forgive her
D
For the secrets and the lies
               D                 Bb
So they drank toast for days to come
                            D
Then the devil spoke with ginger's tongue
 
I hope you like champagne with cyanide
                      Gm
Jane met ginger over dinner in July

Joe met Daisy on the day of the dead
When he woke up drunk and handcuffed
To a dirty double bed

She said Joe you should be wary of
The women you pretend to love
Then she wrapped a plastic bag around his head
Joe met Daisy on the day of the dead

Oh, your time is coming fast
And the Ferryman only deals in cash
Oh, your time is coming fast
And the Ferryman only deals in
The Ferryman only deals in cash

Ben met Gary at a backroom game of pool
When he caught him petting heavy
With a boy from Baton Rouge
He said, Ben you should have learned by now
I'm not a fan of fuckin' around
Then he beat him with a bottle and a cue
Ben met Gary at a backroom game of pool

Oh, your time is coming fast
"Row, row down the stream"
And the Ferryman only deals in cash
"This is not a dream"
Oh, your time is coming fast
"Row, row down the stream"
And the Ferryman only deals in
The Ferryman only deals in cash

Never again can be innocent and
Everything ends, well it just makes sense
If up has a down, there's another side
In there's an out, so it's worth a try
People want each other
But they want themselves more
Even when your lover's something new to live for
It's to die for, therefore to kill for
Black has white so go to the light, my love

Jane met Ginger over dinner in July
Ginger said that she'd forgive her
For the secrets and the lies
So they drank a toast for days to come
And the Devil spoke with Ginger's tongue
"Oh, I hope you like champagne with cyanide"
Jane met Ginger over dinner in July

Oh, your time is coming fast
"Row, row down the stream"
And the Ferryman only deals in cash
"This is not a dream"
Oh, your time is coming fast
"Row, row down the stream"
And the Ferryman only deals in
The Ferryman only deals in
Oh, your time is coming fast
"Row, row down the stream"
And the Ferryman only deals in cash
"This is not a dream"
Oh, your time is coming fast
"Row, row down the stream"
And the Ferryman only deals in
The Ferryman only deals in cash
