《The Ghosts Of Saturday Night(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:01] The Ghosts Of Saturday Night - Tom Waits

[00:00:20] A cab combs the snake

[00:00:22] Tryin to rake in that last nights fare

[00:00:27] And a solitary sailor

[00:00:29] Who spends the facts of his life

[00:00:31] Like small change on strangers

[00:00:36] Paws his inside p-coat pocket

[00:00:40] For a welcome twenty-five cents

[00:00:44] And the last bent butt

[00:00:46] From a package of kents

[00:00:47] As he dreams of a waitress

[00:00:49] With maxwell house eyes

[00:00:51] And marmalade thighs

[00:00:53] With scrambled yellow hair

[00:00:57] Her rhinestone-studded moniker says irene

[00:01:02] As she wipes the wisps of

[00:01:05] Dishwater blonde from her eyes

[00:01:21] And the texaco beacon burns on

[00:01:26] The steel-belted attendant

[00:01:27] With a ring and valve special

[00:01:31] Cryin filler up and check that oil

[00:01:34] You know it could be a distributor

[00:01:36] And it could be a coil

[00:01:43] The early mornin final editions on the stands

[00:01:48] And that town cryers cryin there

[00:01:50] With nickels in his hands

[00:01:55] Pigs in a blanket sixty-nine cents

[00:01:59] Eggs-roll em over and a package of kents

[00:02:03] Adam and eve on a log

[00:02:05] You can sink em damn straight

[00:02:07] Hash browns hash browns

[00:02:09] You know I cant late be

[00:02:32] And the early dawn cracks

[00:02:34] Out a carpet of diamond

[00:02:37] Across a cash crop car lot

[00:02:39] Filled with twilight coupe devilles

[00:02:43] Leaving the town in a-keeping

[00:02:47] Of the one who is sweeping

[00:02:55] Up the ghost of saturday night
