Hemlock Smith - A toast lyrics

I propose a toast To the living and the dead I propose a toast To the lost souls without bread I propose a toast And may my throat be dry Here's to all the ghosts Whose carpets never fly I shouldn't boast I've had my share of misfortunes Miscarriages Misfires From coast to coast From here to there Along the wire… I propose a toast To the injured and the weak Let me be your host And conjure up the bleak I shouldn't boast I've had my share of misfortunes Miscarriages Misfires From coast to coast From here to there Along the wire… Come drink with me Drink to me Until the desert closes in We'll s** the drops of infinite space And lick the black within Come drink with me Drink to me Until the desert closes in We'll s** the drops of infinite space And lick the black within I propose a toast To those who loved me-you did good I did the most But mostly just what I could From coast to coast From here to there Along the wire… From coast to coast From here to there Along the wire…
