The Days of Pearly Spencer

The Days of Pearly Spencer - David McWilliams A tenement a dirty street &nbsp; Walked and worn by shoeless feet &nbsp; Inside it's long and so complete &nbsp; Watched by a shivering sun &nbsp; Old eyes in a small child's face &nbsp; Watching as the shadows race &nbsp; Through walls and cracks and leave no trace &nbsp; And daylight's brightness shuns &nbsp; The days of pearly spencer &nbsp; The race is almost run &nbsp; Nose pressed hard on frosted glass &nbsp; Gazing as the swollen mass &nbsp; On concrete fields where grows no grass &nbsp; Stumbles blindly on &nbsp; Iron trees smother the air &nbsp; But withering they stand and stare &nbsp; Through eyes that neither know nor care &nbsp; Where the grass is gone &nbsp; The days of pearly spencer &nbsp; The race is almost run &nbsp; Pearly where's your milk white skin &nbsp; What's that stubble on your chin &nbsp; It's buried in the rot-gut gin &nbsp; You played and lost not won &nbsp; You played a house that can't be beat &nbsp; Now look your head's bowed in defeat &nbsp; You walked too far along the street &nbsp; Where only rats can run &nbsp; The days of pearly spencer &nbsp; The race is almost run &nbsp; The days of pearly spencer &nbsp; The race is almost run
