Ray Baby

                                  

                   
                  
                  
                   Ray Baby with the pineapple nose
                   pants always down around his knees
                   dressed in soiled  and tattered clothes

                   This man about Van
                   hangs at cathedral square
                   and anytime rain or shine
                   you can find him sleepin or shufflin there

                   Whats his story whats his game
                   his alcoholic disfigurement
                   seems a mortal shame

                   But as Ray has been drowning
                   in those wounds that he's drunk
                   his ruined face can't fathom
                   the depths to where he's sunk

                   Hows it goin Ray?
                   Ray always answers "Wonderfull Man"
                   and theres that smile in his eyes
                   that I never really understand

                   Well anyway Ray I'm glad you're smiling
                   and heres a salute to you
                   though I know you'd forego the toast
                   and prefer to have the brew!
