"Walkin' Through Eisen"

    by Ken

(a.k.a. Walking in Memphis.)

Put on my war torn boots
And I boarded the boat
Broke down in the land of the Drachen
In the middle of the pouring rain
Theus - won 't you look down over me
Yeah I got a first class passport
But I'm as green as a boy can be

Then I'm walking in Eisen
Walking with my feet ten feet off of a pier
Walking in Eisen
But do I really feel the way I feel

Saw the ghost of Gregor
On Union Avenue
Followed him up to the gates of the Watchturm
Then I watched him walk right through
Now city guard they did not see him
They just hovered 'round his tomb
But there's a pretty little thing
Waiting for the Saint
Down in the Monster's Room

Chorus:
They've got kraut on the table
They've got strong beer in the air
And Cardinal Bascalle be glad to see you
When you haven't got a prayer
But boy you've got a prayer in Eisen

Now Muriel plays piano
Every Friday at the Fox's Den
And they brought me down to see her
And they asked me if I would--
Do a little number
And I sang with all my might
And she said--
"Tell me are you a Vaticine child?"
And I said "Ma'am I am tonight"

Chorus

Put on my war torn boots
And I boarded the boat
Broke down in the land of the Drachen
In the middle of the pouring rain
Broke down in the land of the Drachen
In the middle of the pouring rain
