tom waits – whistle down the wind (2023 remaster) lyrics
[verse 1]
well, i grew up here, all of my life
and i dreamed someday i’d go
where the blue+eyed girls and red guitars
and the naked rivers flow
[verse 2]
now i’m not all i thought i’d be
i’ve always stayed around
i’ve been as far as mercy and grand
frozen to the ground
[verse 3]
well, i can’t stay here and i’m scared to leave
so kiss me once and then
i’ll go to h+ll, i might as well
be whistlin’ down the wind
[verse 4]
bus is at the corner
the clock on the wall
a brokеn+down windmill
ain’t no wind at all
[verse 5]
well, i yelled and i cursеd
if i stay here, i’ll rust
and i’m stuck like a shipwreck
out here in the dust
[instrumental break]
[verse 6]
well, the sky is red and the world is on fire
and the corn is taller than me
and a dog is tied to a wagon of rain
and the road is wet as the sea
[verse 7]
but sometimes the music from a dance
will carry across the plains
and the places that i’m dreaming of
do they dream only of me?
[verse 8]
there are places where they never sleep
and the circus never ends
so i will take the marley bone coach
and be whistlin’ down the wind
[outro]
so i will take the marley bone coach
and be whistlin’ down the wind
