Call me trashcan tomcat* |
|
I'm as lonesome as a song |
|
Call me trashcan tomcat |
|
And you will never call me wrong |
|
Meet me in the silver starlight |
|
When the dusty day is through |
|
Wiggle through the door to midnight |
|
I'll be waiting there for you |
|
Baby set aside some downtime |
|
Well baby take off your chain |
|
Baby if you got the incline |
|
I can ease you of your pain |
|
Even madness has its season |
|
Well you know it's difficult |
|
Never ask to know the reason |
|
When you can judge by the result |
|
Call me trashcan tomcat |
|
I'm as lonesome as a song |
|
Call me trashcan tomcat |
|
And you will never call me wrong |
|
Here among the bones and fish tails |
|
Beneath the Mississippi moon |
|
I'll speak of love that never fails |
|
I will even sing the tune |
|
Call me trashcan tomcat |
|
I'm as lonesome as a song |
|
Call me trashcan tomcat |
|
Lonely as the day is long |
|
I will leave you in the morning |
|
When my alley run is through |
|
Disappear without a warning |
|
But I will never leave you blue |
|
I will search among the tatters |
|
And the scaps of people's dreams |
|
Sift the ash for all that matters |
|
Try to tell you what it means |
|
Call me trashcan tomcat |
|
I'm as lonesome as a song |
|
Call me trashcan tomcat |
|
Lonely as the day is long |
|
Just call me trashcan tomcat |
|
Lonely as the day is long |
