Liner Notes
Yay! a ghost song! #Ghost
Lyrics
Headless (c)Cindyrella
Late at night Near the Detroit River When the lifting fog Just might make you shiver That or the headless body Roaming alone with a moan Searching for his lost family Trying to get back phone
Benny Evangelista lost everything His head was never found He's roamed over 100 years Moaning a horrible sound Most people avoid the area His image you can never forget They say that for eternity He'll be walking there yet
Chorus Headless Lifeless Dragging his body along Skin and bones Unearthly moans Nowhere does he belong
Somebody came inside But no one ever paid Killing them one and all With the sharpest blade Such a horrible story That left a headless man Wandering by a river Trying to understand
Repeat chorus

@jerrypettit thank you you are so kind. Man I do love the ghost stories/lyrics Cindy come up with. May the ghosts live forever... Booo!
Wow, listening to this is like going to a 3-act play at a theater! Mysteriously crafted lyrics presented in a very dynamic way!
Top lyric, one of my fav Cindy styles, what a cool story. Of course marthie nailed it, but was the most different I have heard her.
I remember commenting on this neat lyric but with the music added to it, it takes a whole new dimension - your vocal treatment Marthie gives it an expressive, theatrical, dynamic quality which really pulled me in (in no small part because of the lyrics and your nice playing and singing). I think you must both feel really good about this! Loving your style Marthie and going to look at another!
Ooo! Nice and scary! Chilling and eerie! Great job on this! Thanks!!
Wait--a @cindyrella and @marthie collaboration and...IT'S ABOUT GHOSTS?!!!!!! I'm in Heaven!!! Ah, the memories this evokes! ❤️
