The Ballad of Ingo Swann

Black sails
To nowhere if you want
Bust out the broken grind
Lonely like suicide around us

All hail the tall tale of Ingo Swann
To kiss the earth goodbye
To kiss the earth and sky
Upon us again

To reach the other side
Come on, baby
Give it a try and see
Come on, hold me, help me
Give me something
To kiss the earth goodbye
I'm on the other side
To kiss the earth goodbye
I got to give it a try

Outbound to no town
The dirty earth
Over the mountainside
Over old Palestine

Slow way to no way
Which ever’s first
I see your sad eyes
Are these the darkest times
Upon us, again

To reach the other side
Come on, baby
Give it a try and see
Come on, hold me, help me
Give me something
To kiss the earth goodbye
I'm on the other side
To kiss the earth goodbye
I got to give it a try
To kiss the earth goodbye
Just like a human I’m blind
To kiss the earth goodbye
Again

All hail the tall tale of Ingo Swann
Lonely like suicide
Over the mountainside
Over the mountainside
I want to kiss the earth goodbye
To kiss the earth goodbye
I want to kiss the earth goodbye again
I want to kiss the earth goodbye
I want to kiss the earth goodbye
I want to kiss the earth goodbye
