| Met the Ghost of Stephen Foster at the Hotel Paradise
|
| This is what I told him as I gazed into his eyes:
|
| Rooms were made for carpets,
|
| Towers made for spires,
|
| Ships were made for cannonade fire off from inside them
|
| (Chorus): Gwine to run all night
|
| Gwine to run all day
|
| Camptown ladies never sang all the doo dah day no, no, no (End Chorus)
|
| (Chorus)
|
| Met the Ghost of Stephen Foster at the Hotel Paradise
|
| This is what I told him as I gazed into his eyes:
|
| Ships were made for sinking,
|
| Whiskey made for drinking,
|
| If we were made of cellophane, we’d all get stinking drunk quite faster ha, ha,
|
| ha
|
| (Chorus)
|
| (Chorus) |
