Giles of the River — текст песни (John Kay)

Words and music by Walter Becker and Donald Fagen

I spent my life twenty years in the basin
My only friend was a man of much more
He lied with power in his weary eyes `till day came
And all at once I knew his name

Giles of the river…comin` in to make my precious day
Giles of the river…comin` in to tell one tale and take
My breath away…and he`s on his way

He took me down through good times late departed
And through the world as it was and will be
By bad self I watched you as you hung your head out my door
But you won`t grieve me no more
