My homegirl just passed away almost 3 years ago and this was her favorite song! I've been a big fan of Tom Waits and it was so nice to meet another fan. It's rare around my parts. R.I.P Samantha Allen I love you milady
RIP ❤ Sounds like she was a pleasure to know and great memories had! 🙂
Is this the best song on the Rain Dogs album?
It deserves to be.
Storytelling and storytelling is Tom Waits. Man what else could you ask for!
Tom waits is one of the artists that makes me write something while listenning to them, the vibe, the emotion, the rythim makes me see hole scenes in my mind and i m forced to put it on a paper.
One of my all time favorites of his, which is hard to narrow down.
My Favorite Song From Tom.
Well kids it's been four months or so since I moved into a kinda halfway house to kick speed at the urging of my mom... Tom's words and music made sense when I was lost and spun out, they made sense as I hung on the line to dry out, and they make sense now that I'm back with my ex living California sober in this trailer in Missouri...thanks Tom,and God bless...
Congratulations dude.
Best of luck homie
Your mom is a buzz kill.
I'll get clean someday ......
Keep with it. I know it took me nearly three years before I wasn’t numb and my brain made happy chemicals again but it was worth it
happy birthday, Tom 😎

This song has the perfect rhythm for the rock-and-bounce-thing that soothes babies, so I sing it to babies all the time!
I personally love your post. Thanks. I believe there is genius hiding in your soul somewhere.
I used to bounce my son to sleep listening to “Big in Japan”
In our house ‘Pony’ was the lullaby
Favorite song blind love
That is just hands-down one of the best lines ever: "He got all liquored up on that roadhouse corn."
perfect
theres always one whos hangin on a tree when its cold outside....God help us if old man Waits ever dies.
Good time Tom Waits
Tom Waits for Nobody!

Blue as a Robbin's Egg
Brown as a Hog
A moment of silence for those who are still searching for this song
John john hes long gone
Falling James in the Tahoe mud
Stick around to tell us all the tale
He fell in love with a Gun Street girl and
Now he's dancing in the Birmingham jail
Dancing in the Birmingham jail
Took a 100 dollars off a Slaughterhouse Joe
Bought a bran' new Michigan 20 gauge
Got all liquored up on that roadhouse corn
Blew a hole in the hood of a yellow corvette
Blew a hole in the hood of a yellow corvette
Bought a second hand Nova from a Cuban Chinese
Dyed his hair in the bathroom of a Texaco
With a pawnshop radio, quarter past 4
Well he left Waukegan at the slammin' of the door
He left Waukegan at the slammin' of the door
I said, John, John he's long gone
Gone to Indiana
Ain't never coming home
I said John, John he's long gone
Gone to Indiana
Ain't never coming home
Sitting in a sycamore in St. John's Wood
Soakin' day old bread in kerosene
He was blue as a robin's egg brown as a hog
Stayin' out of circulation till the dogs get tired
Stayin' out of circulation till the dogs get tired
Shadow fixed the toilet with an old trombone
He never got up in the morning on a Saturday
Sittin' by the Erie with a bull whipped dog
Tellin' everyone he saw
They went thatta way
Tellin' everyone he saw
They went thatta way
Now the rain's like gravel on an old tin roof
And the Burlington Northern's pullin' out of the world
With a head full of bourbon and a dream in the straw
And a Gun Street Girl was the cause of it all
A Gun Street girl was the cause of it all
Riding in the shadow by the St. Joe Ridge
He heard the click clack tappin' of a blind man's cane
Pullin' into Baker on a New Year's Eve
With one eye on the pistol and the other on the door
With one eye on the pistol and the other on the door
Miss Charlotte took her satchel down to King Fish Row
And she smuggled in a bran' new pair of alligator shoes
With her fireman's raincoat and her long yellow hair, well
They tied her to a tree with a skinny millionaire
They tied her to a tree with a skinny millionaire
I said, John, John he's long gone
Gone to Indiana
Ain't never coming home
I said John, John he's long gone
Gone to Indiana
Ain't never coming home
Bangin' on a table with an old tin cup
Sing I'll never kiss a Gun Street Girl again
I'll never kiss a Gun Street Girl again
I said, John, John he's long gone
Gone to Indiana
Ain't never coming home
I said John, John he's long gone
Gone to Indiana
Ain't never coming home
Beats Walt Whitman
More amazing lyrics here than I've heard in the last 10 years 😂

Tom tells some of my darkest days I barely remember, and darker ones I heard about from other dudes over whiskeys in sleazehole bars, midnight street corners and otherwhere's not so nice.
