Foreign Affair (LP版) - The Manhattan Transfer[00:00:00]

Written by：Tom Waits[00:00:00]

Aaaaaaa[00:00:00]

Aaaaaaa[00:00:07]

When traveling abroad in the continental style[00:00:15]

It's my belief that one must attempt to be discreet[00:00:22]

And subsequently bear in mind your transient position[00:00:31]

Allows you a perspective that's unique[00:00:39]

And though you'll find your itinerary's a blessing and a curse[00:00:46]

Your wanderlust won't let you settle down[00:00:54]

And you wonder how you ever fathomed that you'd be content[00:01:01]

To stay within the city limits of a small midwestern town[00:01:08]

Most vagabonds I knowed don't ever want to find the culprit[00:01:16]

That remains the object of their long relentless quest[00:01:24]

The obsession's in the chasing and not the apprehending[00:01:31]

The pursuit you see and never the arrest[00:01:39]

Without fear or contradiction Bon Voyage is often hollered[00:01:52]

In conjunction with a handkerchief from shore[00:02:00]

By a girl that drives a Rambler and furthermore[00:02:07]

Is overly concerned that she won't see him anymore[00:02:13]

Planes and trains and boats and buses[00:02:21]

Characteristically evoke a common attitude of blue[00:02:27]

Unless you have a suitcase and a ticket and a passport[00:02:39]

And the cargo that they're carrying is you[00:02:48]

A foreign affair juxtaposed with a stateside[00:02:55]

And domestically approved romantic fancy[00:03:04]

Is mysteriously attractive due to circumstances knowing[00:03:12]

I will only be parlayed into a memory[00:03:20]
