Words and music by Robert Hunter and Jerry Garcia Old man down, way down, down, down by the docks of the city, Blind and dirty, asked me for a dime, a dime for a cup of coffee I got no dime but, I got time to hear his story My name is August West and I love my Pearly Baker best more than my wine...more than My wine, more than my maker, though he's no friend of mine Everyone said, I'd come to no good I knew I would, Pearly believed them Half of my life, I spent doin' time for some other fxxker's crime Other half found me stumbling around, drunk on burgundy wine But I'll get back, on my feet someday The good Lord willing if He says I may 'cause I know the life I'm livin's no good I'll get a new start and live the life I should I'll get up and fly away, I'll get up and fly away...fly away Pearly's been true, true to me, true to my dying day he said I said to him: I'm sure she's been I said to him: I'm sure she's been true to you I got up and wandered, Wandered downtown nowhere to go just to hang around I got a girl .. named Bonny Lee I know that girl's been true to me I know she's been.. I'm sure she's been..true to me |

Wow Jake, haven't ever heard that tune at such an early hour :-) I'll save it for tonight with an appropriate beverage. Keep the stuff coming, more dead is appreciated.
