Mr. Harmonica

Mr. Harmonica said we missed the boat
He was a stranger but agreed to lend us a note
He told us stories of the bright and golden coast
He was peculiar it appeared he lost his hope
Somewhere along the way
We left him to wait
We left him to wait
At a bar somewhere along coast highway
Mr. Harmonica told us 'bout the war
He said he served ten years fighting for us all
He wore an old face but he claimed it once was new
He said he had true love
It seems he lost that too
Along the way
She wouldn't wait
She wouldn't wait
So there he played on Coast Highway
Oh ain't it funny
Life can take you on a whim
With the wind and leave you stripped
Where did it leave him
Where did it leave him
At a dive somewhere along Coast Highway
Mr. Harmonica had music in his ear
He had a kind of pride
He didn't hide from fear
He spoke more after he had one too many beers
He spoke of plans to leave
By sailing from the pier
Ah Ba Ba Ba but it's pretty clear
Ba Ba Ba Ba he's not leaving here
Oh ain't it funny
Life can take you on a whim
With the wind and leave you stripped
Where did it leave him
Oh it's ironic
You can put your heart and soul
Out with your life
On the line
And remain a ghost
He's just a ghost
At a bar somewhere along Coast Highway
Wish you the best of luck
Please let me fill your cup
Sometimes it's true
You just happen to miss the boat
*Music*
Oh ain't it funny
Life can take you on a whim
With the wind and leave you stripped
Where did it leave him
Oh it's ironic
You can put your heart and soul
Out with your life
On the line
And remain a ghost
Oh ain't it funny
Life can take you on a whim
With the wind and leave you stripped
Where did it leave him
Oh it's ironic
You can put your heart and soul
Out with your life
On the line
And remain a ghost
He's just a ghost
