Artist : Phil ochs
Song : Legends
The first time that I called you in that old new
york hotel
It was halloween all over with that trick you
played so well
I woke you up from dreaming singing songs of
yesterday
We took a drive to newport to hear st. peter
play
Chorus:
Dust on you mouth, legends on your mind
Hanging out with bogart in some bygone place and
time
Sing me your sweet changes when I’m feeling down
and blue
And I’ll treasure precious hours that I stole
away with you
Oh the muggy nights in soho, I had so much to
learn
You gave me wings to fly away and asked for no
return
Lon chaney’s ghost beside you wore the face of
mickey finn
And I never once suspected that you and he were
friends
The last that I saw you you weren’t really even
there
I cried when I heard you come across out on the
air
You bid your last farewell just like your first
hello
And I’ll always think about you when I pass
through ohio
