Lon Chaney - Garland Jeffreys

Oh Lon Chaney

Where you been so long?

Sit right down

And let me sing you a song

I seen you on a movie in my room

Oh Lon Chaney

With the velvet touch

A silver dagger and a black man’s crutch

Now’s the time to come out from your tomb

You look so sad

With a face of stone

With a hunchback’s eye you live

Oh Lon Chaney

With the velvet touch

A gypsy woman that you love so much

Say goodbye

You’re cured

You’re free at last

Oh Lon Chaney

What’s to hold you back?

The Wolfman’s dead

And the old black cat is gone

Like a memory faded from your past

You look so sad

With a face of stone

Just skin and bone

You’re all alone

With a hunchback’s eye you live
