Wharf Rat [Live At Jfk Stadium, Philadelphia, Pa, July 7, 1989] - Grateful Dead Old man down, way down down, down by the docks of the city. Blind and dirty, asked me for a dime, a dime for a cup of coffee. I got no dime but I got some time to hear his story. My name is august west, and I love my pearly baker best more than my wine. More than my wine - more than my maker, though hes no friend of mine. Everyone said, Id come to no good, I knew I would pearly, believe them. Half of my life, I spent doin time for some other *****ers crime, The other half found me stumbling round drunk on burgundy wine. But Ill get back on my feet again someday, The good lord willin, if he says I may. I know that the life I'm livins no good, Ill get a new start, live the life I should. Ill get up and fly away, Ill get up and fly away, fly away. Pearlys been true, true to me, true to my dyin day he said, I said to him, I said to him, I'm sure she's been. I said to him, I'm sure she's been true to you. Got up and wandered, wandered downtown, nowhere to go but just hang around. I've got a girl, named bonnie lee, I know that girls been true to me. I know she's been, I'm sure she's been true to me.
