Tom Waits - Baby Gonna Leave Me Lyrics
Well I stood on the corner
Until my feet got wet
I stood by the faucet
Till the sink filled up
I stood by the window
My baby's bought a ticket
Long as my clothes line
Na na na na, na-na-na
Na na na na
My baby went and left me in a '49 Ford
Going down the highway in a 49 sword
My baby ripped my heart out
With every turn of the moon
There's never been a rose without a thorn
Na na na na, na-na-na
Na na na
Well I'm just another sad guest
On this dark earth
And if I was a tree
I'd be a cut down tree
And if I was a bed
I'd be an unmade bed
I'll get my 32/20 and it'll have to do
Na na na na, na-na-na
Na na na na
Gone like the wind in the meadow
And the rain on the hill
You even left your lipstick
And your powder and your blush
Baby gonna leave me
On a Grey Hound bus
The stars are melting
All across the sky
Na na na na, na-na-na
Na na na na
I let the dog out
But he didn't come back
Stood on the corner until
My feet got wet
Baby leave me in a '49 Ford
I stood by the window
Untill the moon came up
Na na na na, na-na-na
Na na na na

Tom Waits Baby Gonna Leave Me Comments
Such a great album...such a song.
The guitar solo in this goes so well with all that beatbox, whistles and can hitting noises infecting the sound of the instrument. Tom is all that is good in music
I was only tangentially aware of Tom Waits' music before this record came out. The purity of the music on this record hit me like a ton of bricks.
Really good stuff here!
Well I'm just another sad guest
On this dark earth
And if I was a tree
I'd be a cut down tree
And if I was a bed
I'd be an unmade bed
