9th & Hennepin - Tom Waits (汤姆·威兹)[00:00:00]
Well it's ninth and hennepin[00:00:08]
All the doughnuts have names that sound like prostitutes[00:00:10]
And the moon's teeth marks are on the sky[00:00:14]
Like a tarp thrown all over this[00:00:18]
And the broken umbrellas like dead birds[00:00:19]
Steam comes out of the grill[00:00:22]
Like the whole godd**n town's ready to blow[00:00:24]
And the bricks are all scarred with jailhouse tattoos[00:00:28]
And everyone is behaving like dogs[00:00:32]
And the horses are coming down Violin Road[00:00:36]
Dutch is dead on his feet[00:00:39]
All the rooms they smell like diesel[00:00:41]
You take on the dreams of the[00:00:43]
Ones who have slept here[00:00:45]
I'm lost in the window[00:00:48]
And I hide in the stairway[00:00:50]
I hang in the curtain[00:00:51]
And I sleep in your hat[00:00:53]
And no one brings anything small into a bar around here[00:00:56]
They all started out with bad directions[00:00:59]
And the girl behind the counter has a tattooed tear[00:01:02]
One for every year he's away she said[00:01:05]
Such a crumbling beauty ah[00:01:08]
There's nothing wrong with her that a hundred dollars won't fix[00:01:10]
She has that razor sadness that only gets worse[00:01:15]
With the clang and the thunder of the Southern Pacific going by[00:01:18]
And the clock ticks out like a dripping faucet[00:01:22]
'Til you're full of rag water and bitters and blue ruin[00:01:24]
You spill out over the side to anyone who will listen[00:01:29]
I've seen it all[00:01:34]
I've seen it all[00:01:36]
Through the yellow windows of the evening train[00:01:37]
