[00:21.40] |
He's got the hands of a blind piano player |
[00:24.84] |
He's got a feel for the dark like a soothsayer |
[00:28.97] |
He takes a little bow and tips his fedora |
[00:32.55] |
Shouts like he's gonna save Sodom and Gomorrah |
[00:35.16] |
|
[00:35.73] |
Workin' for the circus X railroad bum |
[00:40.17] |
Carnival barker for kingdom dot come |
[00:43.06] |
Dusty ol' Gibson opposable thumb |
[00:46.61] |
Bangs out the rhythm on a 50-gallon drum |
[00:49.25] |
|
[00:49.75] |
Don't wait for Tom |
[00:53.48] |
Tom's long gone |
[00:54.93] |
He's already moved on |
[00:56.64] |
Don't wait for Tom |
[01:00.49] |
I saw an ol' '55 Buick |
[01:02.65] |
Just before dawn |
[01:03.83] |
I said, Hey, hey Tom |
[01:07.63] |
The sun's comin' up |
[01:09.04] |
You got your wipers on |
[01:10.49] |
|
[01:11.51] |
Are you tryna make it rain again? |
[01:14.72] |
Are you tryna make it rain again? |
[01:17.95] |
Is it rainin' just around your bend? |
[01:21.47] |
Are you tryna make it rain again? |
[01:24.39] |
|
[01:39.59] |
Sittin' in a corner with his pet muskrat |
[01:43.09] |
Tossin' his cards into an old man's hat |
[01:46.61] |
He grins at the girls and they always grin back |
[01:50.90] |
He bets an old waltz he could get 'em in the sack |
[01:53.14] |
|
[01:53.76] |
He makes his own music from the bell of a 'bone |
[01:57.36] |
A waitress's falsie and a railroad phone |
[02:00.89] |
Bobs on his knees to an old tarantella |
[02:04.61] |
South of the border he stole it from a fella |
[02:06.94] |
|
[02:07.34] |
Don't wait for Tom |
[02:11.33] |
Tom's long gone |
[02:12.77] |
He's already moved on |
[02:14.89] |
Don't wait for Tom |
[02:18.10] |
I saw an ol' '55 Buick |
[02:19.93] |
Just before dawn |
[02:21.63] |
I said, Hey, hey Tom |
[02:25.11] |
The sun's comin' up |
[02:26.96] |
You got your wipers on |
[02:28.73] |
|
[02:29.07] |
Are you tryna make it rain again? |
[02:32.01] |
Are you tryna make it rain again? |
[02:35.67] |
Is it rainin' just around your bend? |
[02:39.17] |
Are you tryna make it rain again? |
[02:41.35] |
|
[02:43.25] |
His triple-jointed juke fingers splay like a scarecrow |
[02:46.52] |
He kneels down and whistles to a fallen sparrow |
[02:50.34] |
His eyes light up when they wheel in a piano |
[02:53.86] |
He reads a dirty joke out of an old Baptist hymnal |
[02:56.82] |
|
[02:57.70] |
He wears a tuxedo made of sackcloth and ashes |
[03:00.73] |
Has a tattoo of a girl who can bat her eyelashes |
[03:04.46] |
Down on the river he was fishin' with a sword |
[03:08.07] |
He knocked off John the Baptist for a word from the Lord |
[03:10.04] |
|
[03:11.90] |
He takes his coffee with the blood of a turnip |
[03:14.99] |
Blushes his cheeks with an Amsterdam tulip |
[03:18.90] |
Choppin' up a rooster for a pullet surprise |
[03:22.10] |
If the gravy don't getcha he'll getcha with his eyes |
[03:23.90] |
|
[03:25.32] |
|
[03:25.89] |
Don't wait |
[03:26.83] |
|
[03:32.62] |
Hey Tom |
[03:35.43] |
|
[03:37.23] |
The sun's comin' up |
[03:38.11] |
You got your wipers on |
[03:39.37] |
Don't wait for Tom |
[03:43.29] |
The sun's comin' up |
[03:44.86] |
You got your wipers on |
[03:46.25] |
|
[03:46.70] |
Hey Tom |
[03:47.94] |
Ohoh,Tom |
[03:48.65] |
|
[03:55.73] |
|
[03:57.49] |
|
[03:57.79] |
~the end~ |
