Waits, Tom - Jockey Full Of Bourbon Lyrics
Edna Million in a drop dead suit
Dutch Pink on a downtown train
Two dollar pistol but the gun won't shoot
I'm in the corner on the pouring rain
16 men on a deadman's chest
2 pairs of pants and a mohair vest
I'm full of bourbon, I can't stand up
Hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire, your children are alone
Hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire, your children are alone
Schiffer broke a bottle on Morgan's head
And I've been stepping on the devil's tail
Through the bars of a Cuban jail
Bloody fingers on a purple knife
A flamingo drinking from a cocktail glass
I'm on the lawn with someone else's wife
Come admire the view from up on top of the mast
Hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire, your children are alone
Hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire, your children are alone
I said, hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire, your children are alone
Hey little bird, fly away home
House is on fire, your children are alone
Yellow sheets in a Hong Kong bed
Stazybo horn and a Slingerland ride
To the carnival is what she said
A hundred dollars makes it dark inside
Edna Million in a drop dead suit
Dutch Pink on a downtown train
Two dollar pistol but the gun won't shoot
I'm in the corner on the pouring rain
Hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire, your children are alone
Hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire, your children are alone

tom bekler
I'm not suprised Waits and Jarmusch works together.
Brilliant tracking shots from Down by Law, directed by Jim Jarmusch and starring Tom Waits of course.
Un film excellent !
One of the great movie openings!

Edna million in a drop dead suit
Dutch pink on a downtown train
Two dollar pistol but the gun won't shoot
I'm in the corner on the pouring rain
Sixteen men on a dead man's chest
I been drinking from the broken cup
Two pairs of pants and a mohair vest
I'm full of bourbon and I can't stand up
Hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire, your children alone
Hey little bird, you fly away home
Your house is on fire, your children alone
Schiffer broke a bottle on Morgan's head
I'm stepping on the devil's tail
Across the stripes of a full moon's head
All through the bar's of a Cuban jail
Bloody finger's on a purple knife
Flamingo drinking from a cocktail glass
I'm on the lawn with someone else's wife
Admire the view from the top of the mast
Hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire, your children alone
Hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire, your children alone
Yellow sheets on a Hong Kong bed
Stazybo horn and a slingerland ride
To the carnival is what she said
A couple hundred dollars makes it dark inside
Edna million in a drop dead suit
Dutch pink on a downtown train
Two dollar pistol but the gun won't shoot
I'm in the corner on the pouring rain
Hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire, your children alone
Hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire, Children Alone
Hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire, children alone
Hey little bird, fly away home
Your house is on fire, your children alone
If I could write like this guy I wouldn't be watching youtube...
An amazing song that i wish Waits didn't whisper sing
Some great shots of the old Ninth Ward in New Orleans (circa mid '80s)...this area got flooded out and destroyed by Hurricane Katrina, now it's become whitewashed and 'gentrified'
This is my desert island disc. It is also the first track on my favourite movie,Things to do in Denver,when you're dead.
ダウンバイロー

Watched this movie 21 times the best most brilliant piece of art
tamas horvath if you love the photography and realistic simplicity of this film, watch La Haine. Very very similar and is a brilliant nod to this film, and some aspects of Scorsese and spike Lee. Down by Law is a masterpiece, but undoubtedly you would love La Haine, it's actually my all time favourite film.
@san sa to the contrary...pay close attention to the cinematography.
Also when zak walks into his room, there's writing on the wall that says like "doesn't matter how you fall...its the sudden hit" or something.
And the tagline speech said 3 times through la Haine is "l'importance , cest pas la chute. Cest l'atterrisage. (translation: it doesn't matter how you fall...its the landing".
And also compare the introductory black screens at the beginning. Very parallel. Tons and tons of tiny details. Check out la Haine again, bro. Mathieu himself even said he got a bit of inspiration from Jim Jarmusch (spelling?), as well as spike Lee (do the right thing), and lots of taxi driver/ DeNiro references..ex) astérix with the Russian roulette (deer hunter), the mirror scene (taxi driver) , smoking in the theatre (cape fear). I think it could be fair to say Mathieu had taken various inspirations from those 3 directors and DeNiro to create his masterpiece
@san sa also I never said "la Haine and down by law were connected and had to do with each other." I just spoke about the photography and how it "nodded" to films such as Down by Law.
But on a light note, I do want to thank you for calling me out unnecessarily. It made me think even more about the influences that created La Haine. It made me think more about it, and I realized ..."HOLY SHIT, never noticed that before!" Lol.
All's good brother, d idnt mean no disrespect. Your comment actually helped me analyze deeper. But check it out, like I said man, tiny details that "nod" Down by Law
@Rik James Is that french film 1995?
@John Johnson yes sir! 😊
best song in the world
The lyricism on the album is off the god damned charts. Rife with biblical references and trademark waits absurdity. Magic.
One of Tom's best songs Marc Ribot's guitar work is sublime
It's a great song by any standard. But you're right; what makes it is Marc Ribot's guitar. Once heard, never forgotten.
Great bass line
Well, okay. But how about Marc Ribot's lead guitar? That's a singular performance that makes the song.
Brilliant songfrom a brilliant film!
