[00:01.22]Thick fog grows in waves on the Golden Gate
[00:12.02]I was checking my watch seven minutes in my shift
[00:20.07]
[00:22.13]When I spot a black skirt on the rail
[00:26.18]
[00:26.75]Straddling the bar like it's a quarter of rye
[00:31.36]
[00:32.18]She's scared to jump but terrified to stay
[00:36.67]
[00:37.30]Walked to her slow extend my hand
[00:39.92]with a smile and say
[00:42.10]
[00:42.84]"Ma'am, how was your day?
[00:47.71]Keep your eyes on my face
[00:51.58]
[00:52.21]I want to help you if you let me"
[00:56.93]
[01:18.79]She startled, I look forward,
[01:22.97]
[01:23.58]wrap my arms 'round her legs
[01:27.47]
[01:28.70]Pull her down to the sidewalk,
[01:33.58]we're both needing for air and I say
[01:38.07]
[01:39.19]"Ma'am how was your day?
[01:44.19]Keep your eyes on my face
[01:48.80]I want to help you if you let me"
[01:53.80]
[02:07.15]Most folks think they'll hit the surface
[02:11.14]and never feel no pain
[02:16.95]Water pulls you under back to the womb once again
[02:27.06]Bodies float to the shore, bloated but, but in blue
[02:36.97]If sharks don't get you first crabs will have their way with you
