Version 1 of the lyrics

1  It was late at night on the open road   It was late at night on the open road, 1
2  Speeding like a man on the run   Speeding like a man on the run, 2
3  A lifetime spent preparing for the journey   A lifetime spent preparing for the journey; 3
1   1
4  He is closer now and the search is on   He is close now and the search is on, 4
5  Reading from a map in the mind   Reading from a map in the mind, 5
6  Yes, there's the ragged hill and there's the boat on the river   Yes there's the ragged hill,                                          6
7                                              And there's the boat on the river, 7
2  And when the rain came down   2
8  He heard a wild dog howl   And when the rain came down, 8
9  There were voices in the night, "Don't do it"   He heard a wild dog howl,                  9
10  Voices out of sight,                "Don't do it"   There were voices in the night - "Don't do it!" 10
11  Too many men have failed before            Voices out of sight - "Don't do it! 11
12  Whatever you do                          Too many men have failed before, 12
13                        Whatever you do, 13
3  Don't pay the ferryman   3
14  Don't even fix a price   Don't pay the ferryman,        14
15  Don't pay the ferryman           Don't even fix a price, 15
16  Until he gets you to the other side   Don't pay                the ferryman,       16
17                                                  Until he gets you to the other side;" 17
4  In the rolling mist then he gets on board   4
18  Now there'll be no turning back                     In the rolling mist then he gets on board, 18
19  Beware that hooded old man at the rudder   Now there'll be no turning back,              19
20                                                      Beware that hooded old man at the rudder, 20
21  And then the lightning flashed, and the thunder roared   And then the lightning flashed,                            21
22  And people calling out his name   and the thunder roared,            22
23  And dancing bones that jabbered and a-moaned on the water   And dancing bones that jabbered and a-moaned                 23
24                     On the water; 24
5  And then the ferryman said   5
25  "There is trouble ahead          And then the ferryman said, 25
26  So you must pay me now", "Don't do it"   "There is trouble ahead,                             26
27  "You      must pay me now",    "Don't do it"   So you must pay me now," - "Don't do it!" 27
28  And still that voice came from beyond             "you must pay me now," - "Don't do it!" 28
29  Whatever you do                               And still that voice came from beyond, 29
30                         "Whatever you do, 30
6  Don't pay the ferryman   6
31  Don't even fix a price   Don't pay the ferryman,        31
32  Don't pay the ferryman           Don't even fix a price, 32
33  Until he gets you to the other side   Don't pay                the ferryman,       33
34                                                 Until he gets you to the other side; 34
7  Don't pay the ferryman   7
8  Don't even fix a price   8
9  Don't pay the ferryman   9
10  Until he gets you to the other side   10
11   11
12  Don't pay the ferryman   12
13  Don't even fix a price   13
14  Don't pay the ferryman   14
15  Until he gets you to the other side   15
16   16
17  Don't pay the ferryman   17
18  Don't even fix a price   18
19  Don't pay the ferryman   19
20  Until he gets you to the other side   20
      
35  Don't pay    the ferryman   Don't pay - the ferryman!" 35
