Verse 1
Down by the river where the black reeds sway
Heard a low song at the break of day
Boatman hummin’ with a hollow grin
Said, “Pay your coin, boy, or don’t step in”
Pre-Chorus
I said, “I ain’t got gold, just a soul to keep”
He laughed real low like the river runs deep
Chorus
Oh row, Charon, row me slow
Through the dark where the cold winds blow
If I drown, don’t let me know
Just sing me down where the lost souls go
Verse 2
Met a girl with a crown of snakes
Eyes like fire in the shadows of Hades’ gates
She said, “Turn back now or lose your name”
But I kept on walkin’ through the ash and flame
Pre-Chorus
Every step felt cursed, every breath like stone
But I ain’t never been afraid of the great unknown
Chorus
Oh row, Charon, row me slow
Through the dark where the cold winds blow
If I fall, don’t let it show
Just sing me down where the lost souls go
Bridge
Banjo cryin’, fiddle moan
Heard the dead call me their own
Three old voices in the night
Singing wrong but feelin’ right
Final Chorus
Oh row, Charon, row me home
To the place where the wild things roam
If I’m gone, don’t carve no stone
Just sing me down where the lost souls go
