Waits, Tom - Lowside Of The Road Lyrics






I'm on a black elevator
Goin down
Little Joe from Kokomo
It rattles to the ground
The dice is laughin at the
man that he throwed
Your rollin over to the
Lowside of the road.

The moon is red and your
Dancin real slow
29 miles left to go
The chain momkeys
Help you with your load
You're rollin over to the
Lowside of the road

Jezebel is naked
With an axe
The prosecution tell you
To relax
Your head feels like it's ready
To explode
You're rollin over, you're rollin over

Well the clapper has been ripped
Out of the bell
The flapper has been kicked right
Out of hell
When the horse whips the
Man that he rode
You're rollin over to the Lowside of the road

The dog won't bite if you beat
Him with a bone
She's so shy when she's
Talkin on the phone
The round rises up and starts to groan
You're rollin over to the
Lowside of the road

Waits, Tom Lowside Of The Road Comments

    Funny how one's tastes in music changes over time. In the early 1970s, when I first heard Tom Waits' music, I hated it. I bought one album at the time. Then in mid 1990s, I gave it a listening to, once again. At that time, I kind of fell in love with it. I have become a huge fan of his music, ever since. I began collecting his CDs. Thanks to You Tube, I can listen to all his recordings. Not a single day goes by where I don't have a place for one of his songs. His words, the lyrics of his tunes are amazing. I'm old enough to remember some the "old time" phrases, he incorporates that are referential to the 1920s, 1930s, 40s, & 50s. Street language of their day. Rough, crude, laced with double meanings. I think he is America's national treasure. He and I are fairly close in age,....within a couple of years. I am also amazed at how prolific he is, having produced so many albums/ CDs.
