Charlie Freak Lyrics - Pretzel Logic - Steely Dan

Charlie Freak had but one thing to call his own 

Three weight ounce pure golden ring no precious stone 

Five nights without a bite 

No place to lay his head 

And if nobody takes him in 

He'll soon be dead 

On the street he spied my face I heard him hail 

In our plot of frozen space he told his tale 

Poor man, he showed his hand 

So righteous was his need 

And me so wise I bought his prize 

For chicken feed

Newfound cash soon begs to smash a state of mind 

Close inspection fast revealed his favorite kind 

Poor kid, he overdid 

Embraced the spreading haze 

And while he sighed his body died 

In fifteen ways 

Photos 

When I heard I grabbed a cab to where he lay 

'Round his arm the plastic tag read D.O.A. 

Yes Jack, I gave it back 

The ring I could not own 

Now come my friend I'll take your hand 

And lead you home
