baby gonna leave me

Singer:tom waits

well i stood on the corner

until my feet got wet

i stood by the faucet

till the sink filled up

i stood by the window

until the moon came up

my baby's bought a ticket

long as my clothes line

na na na na

na-na-na

na na na na

my baby went and left me in a '49 ford

going down the highway in a 49 sword

my baby ripped my heart out

with every turn of the moon

somebody told me

there's never been a rose without a thorn

na na na na

na-na-na

na na na

well i'm just another sad guest

on this dark earth

and if i was a tree

i'd be a cut down tree

and if i was a bed

i'd be an unmade bed

i'll get my 32/20 and it'll have to do

na na na na

na-na-na

na na na na

gone like the wind in the meadow

and the rain on the hill

you even left your lipstick

and your powder and your blush

baby gonna leave me

on a grey hound bus

the stars are melting

all across the sky

na na na na

na-na-na

na na na na

i let the dog out

but he didn't come back

stood on the corner until

my feet got wet

baby leave me in a '49 ford

i stood by the window

untill the moon came up

na na na na

na-na-na

na na na na
