I take you on my vessel And carry you across This dark and raging river To distant shores This is your final journey But don't forget to pay A coin under your tongue Is enough for me A ferryman's fee Those who cannot pay me Will not reach their goal They'll forever wander Aimlessly
Black rocks mark the shoreline Of eternity A place where you can enter But never leave The hound of hell awaits you Three-headed is the beast The guardian at the gates of The underworld Farewell my pa**enger My work here is done I leave you in the hands of My master
