A tenement,

a dirty street
Walked and worn
by shoeless feet

Inside it's long and
so complete
Old eyes in a small
child's face

Watching as the
shadows race
Through walls and
cracks and leave

no trace
And daylight's
brightness shuns
The days of

Pearly Spencer
Ah... the race

is almost run
Iron trees smother

the air but withering
they stand and stare
The days of

Pearly Spencer
Ah... the race is

almost run
Pearly where's your
milk white skin

What's that stubble
on your chin
It's buried in the
rut gut gin

You played and lost
not won
You played a house
that can't be beat

Now look your head's
bowed in defeat
You walked too far
along the street

Where only
rats can run
The days of

Pearly Spencer
Ah... the race

is almost run
The days of

Pearly Spencer
Ah... the race

is almost run
The race is

almost run

A tenement.
a dirty street

Remember worn
and shoeless feet
Remember how you
stand to beat

The way your
life had gone
So Pearly don't you
shed more tears

for those best
forgotten years
Those tenements
are memories

of where you've
risen from
The days of

Pearly Spencer
Ah... the race

is almost won...
