Kishore Kumar Hits — Tom Waits - Christmas Card From A Hooker In Minneapolis текст песни

Исполнитель: Tom Waits

альбом: Used Songs (1973-1980)

Hey Charlie, I'm pregnant and living on 9th street
Right above a dirty bookstore off Euclid avenue
I stopped taking dope, I quit drinking whiskey
My old man plays the trombone and works out at the track
♪
He says that he loves me even though its not his baby
He says that he'll raise him up like he would his own son
He gave me a ring that was worn by his mother
And he takes me out dancin' every Saturday night
Hey Charlie, I think about you every time I pass a fillin' station
On account of all the grease you used to wear in your hair
I still have that record of "Little Anthony & The Imperials"
But someone stole my record player, how do you like that?
♪
Hey Charlie, I almost went crazy after Mario got busted
I went back to Omaha to live with my folks
Everyone I used to know was either dead or in prison
So I came back to Minneapolis, this time I think I'm gonna stay
Hey Charlie, I think I'm happy for the first time since my accident
I wish I had all the money we used to spend on dope
I'd buy me a used car lot, I wouldn't sell any of 'em
I'd just drive a different car every day, depending on how I feel
♪
Hey Charlie, for Christ's sake, do you want to know the truth of it?
I don't have a husband, he don't play the trombone
I need to borrow money to pay this lawyer, and Charlie, hey
I'll be eligible for parole, come Valentine's day
