Saltwater Gallivanter from Bottomless Coffee by Caleb Groh

Was a bedsheed bandit, July heat
I was turning out the lights
When a ghost happened upon me in the middle of the night
She said, "Tell Aubben you saw me, it'll cost you your life"
So I never told Aubben and I'm doing alright

I've been sleeping on an old friend's floor, ain't sleeping right
Well I've been dreaming about your doings out in Telluride
Can't clasp my hands nor be the man to fix your fights
I just tell myself you're full of Hell and I feel alright

I was living in the Thunder, soul sundered
Was a bug-bit Horowitz bangin' out Prelude 5
Saltwater gallivanter, bewitched moon went and took me into your tide
Had a gruyere nightmare, shook me like a banshee cry

Black magic harlot in the bitter dawn
She was boisterous conjuring spirits out on Rue Bourbon
You let the devil out and he's never going back to Hell
I guess that teaches you to dabble in those summoning spells

Valkyrie vision out in San Antone
She was whisperin' sweet, said "How'sa about we move in harmony?"
Well if you took'a my hand to Valhalla, man
That don't make it right
And you can trust, honey, I don't care where you lay at night

Was just a black Buick blunder, Dixie Summer
Every cobwebbed paper-back Kerouac singin' me home
Hard heathen, bad believin'
Cigarillo ash phoenix, must've been the turpentine
Caught you switch flipped, bit-lip, baby but you've been benign
I wasn't messin' around
