Tom Waits – Altar Boy Lyrics  Share

From Tom Waits's album: Orphans: Bastards

He^,s an ol^, altar boy
Lying out there in the street
He^,s an ol^, alter boy
Bound up in leather and chains
That^,s why I^,m feeling so blue
I^,m an old altar boy
What about you?

Now, I can order in Latin
Make ^,em au gratin, Joe
I^,m an old altar boy
That^,s why I^,m so depressed
I never got the rest of the dream
Just the ritual
Now I^,m habitual
Majoring in crimes that are unspeakable
Cause I^,m an old altar boy
[ Altar Boy lyrics from

That^,s what happened to me.

I^,m an old altar boy
He^,s hoping he can meet a woman dressed like a nun
He knows there^,s got to be some around here
Drinking across from the church
A little Father Cribari wine
On a Sunday morn^, time.

I^,m an old altar boy.
Why is he winking at this time in his life?
He never took a wife, cause he^,s an old altar boy
Oh, yeah...
What about you?
