T Bone Tombstone - Ed Harcourt

Is it wrong to sing a sad sad song

To tell a story that is much too long

'Bout a man who made his way back home

And found his name on an old tombstone

Nobody knew who he was

Why he came and for what cause

Is it wrong to sing a sad sad song

To tell a story that is much too long

'Bout a man who made his way back home

And found his name on an old tombstone

People thought he died there

In the muddy water

Been away for 50 odd years

His family waited for him every day

Left a place when the table was laid

But he was taken when 10 years old

By the creatures who came out of the cold

Nobody knew who he was

Why he came and for what cause

People thought he died there

People thought he died there

In the muddy water

Been away for 50 odd years

Ooooh

Ooooh

Found his name on an old tombstone
