Better off Without a Wife - Tom Waits (汤姆·威兹)[00:00:00]

All my friends are married[00:00:45]

Every tom and dick and harry[00:00:49]

You must be strong[00:00:52]

To go it alone[00:00:53]

Heres to the bachelors[00:00:57]

And the bowery bums[00:00:58]

And those who feel that they're the ones[00:01:01]

Who are better off without a wife[00:01:03]

I like to sleep until the crack of noon[00:01:08]

Midnight howlin' at the moon[00:01:13]

Goin out when I wanto comin' home when I please[00:01:15]

I don't have to ask permission[00:01:21]

If I want to go out fishing[00:01:22]

And I never have to ask for the keys[00:01:25]

I know I never been no valentino[00:01:32]

Had a girl who lived in reno[00:01:37]

Left me for a trumpet player[00:01:40]

Didn't get me down[00:01:42]

He was wanted for assault[00:01:44]

Though he said it weren't his fault[00:01:46]

Well the coppers rode him right[00:01:49]

Out of town[00:01:50]

I like to sleep until the crack of noon[00:01:53]

Midnight howlin' at the moon[00:01:57]

Goin' out when I wanto comin' home when I please[00:02:00]

I don't have to ask permission[00:02:06]

If I want to go out fishing[00:02:07]

And I never have to ask for the keys[00:02:10]

I know[00:02:17]

Selfish about my privacy most time[00:02:19]

As long as I can be with me[00:02:24]

We get along so well I can't believe[00:02:26]

I love to chew the fat with folks[00:02:31]

And listen to all your dirty jokes[00:02:34]

I'm so thankful for these friends[00:02:37]

I do receive[00:02:39]

I like to sleep until the crack of noon[00:02:43]

Midnight howlin' at the moon[00:02:46]

Goin' out when I wanto comin' home when I please[00:02:49]

I don't have to ask permission[00:02:55]

If I want to go out fishing[00:02:56]

And I never have to ask for the keys[00:02:59]

I like to sleep until the crack of noon[00:03:56]

Midnight howlin' at the moon[00:03:59]

Goin' out when I wanto comin' home when I please[00:04:01]

I don't have to ask permission[00:04:07]

If I want to go out fishing[00:04:08]

And I never have to ask for the keys[00:04:12]
