Virginia Ave. — текст песни (Tom Waits)

Well, Im walking down virginia avenue

Im trying to find somebody to tell my troubles to.

Harolds club is closing, everybodys going on home

Whats a poor sailor to do?



I guess Ill get on back into my short, make it back to the fort

Sleepin off all the crazy lizards inside of my brain.

Got to be some place thats better than this

This life Im leadings driving me insane



And Im dreaming...



And Im dreaming to the twilight, this town has got me down.

Ive seen all the highlights, Ive been walking all around

I wont make a fuss, Ill take a greyhound bus, carry me away from here

Now what have I got to lose?



cause Im walking on down columbus avenue

The bars are all closing, cause its quarter a two

Every town I go to is like a lock without a key

Those I leave behind are catching up on me,

Catching up on me, theyre catching up on me

Catching up on me, catching up on me, catching up on me.
