Subject: Two Tom Waits songs
1.st verse of Train Song by Tom Waits
Broke down in East St. Louis
On the Kansas City Line
Drunk up all my money
That I borrowed every time
And I fell down at the derby
Night's as black as a crow
It was a train took me away from here
But a train can bring me home
New Coat of Paint by Tom Waits
Let's put a
1st verse:
new coat of paint in this lonesome old town
set 'em up, we'll be knocking 'em down
you'll wear a dress, baby, I'll wear a tie
we laugh at that old bloodshot moon, in that bur - gundy sky _
Coda: times with lots of variations.
2nd verse:
all our soribbled love dreams are lost or trown away
here amidst a shuffle on a overthrowing day
our love needs a transfusion, let's shot it full of wine
fishing for a good time, start throwing in your line
Repeat 1st verse and then fade away with the
I just happened to have these, I didn t and couldn t transcribe them myself...
