Ghost of Jenni Rainbyrd - Martin Newell

I went looking for the ghost of Jenni Rainbyrd

Cause I hadn’t heard that song since 1973

So I lit a cigarette and I remembered old times great times

It was early in the evening when I went down to the sea

Down where the sea birds calling

Down where the sky is cold

Down where the tide is rolling bells were tolling

I went strolling around

I went looking for the ghost of Jenni Rainbyrd downtown around town

There was nothing on the streets but the jasmine flowers on the breeze

And the yellow gypsy lanterns in the window called me called me

And the tapping of the rain like tambourines in the trees

Back to the small town dances

Back like a rolling stone

Back but I’ve got no answers

Jenni Rainbyrd is gone and I’m all alone

I’m all alone 5239
