Tom Waits – Bottom Of The World Lyrics  Share

From Tom Waits's album: Orphans: Brawlers

My daddy told me, lookin back,
The best friend you^,ll have is a railroad track
So when I was 13 said, I^,m rollin^, my own
And I^,m leavin^, Missouri and I^,m never comin^, home

And I^,m lost
And I^,m lost
I^,m lost at the bottom of the world
I^,m handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar
I^,m lost at the bottom of the world.

Satchel Puddin^, and Lord God Mose
Sitting by the fire with a busted nose
That fresh egg yeller is too damn rare
But the white part is perfect for slickin^, down your hair

And I^,m lost
And I^,m lost
I^,m lost at the bottom of the world
I^,m handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar
I^,m lost at the bottom of the world.

Blackjack Ruby and Nimrod Cain
The moon^,s the color of a coffee stain
jesse Frank and Birdy Joe Hoaks
But who is the king of all these folks?

And I^,m lost
And I^,m lost

I^,m lost at the bottom of the world
I^,m handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar
I^,m lost at the bottom of the world.

Well I dined last night with Scarface Ron
On Telapia fish cakes and fried black swan
Razorweed onion and peacock squirrel
And I dreamed all night about a beautiful girl

And I^,m lost
And I^,m lost
I^,m lost at the bottom of the world
I^,m handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar
I^,m lost at the bottom of the world.

Well God^,s green hair is where I slept last
He balanced a diamond on a blade of grass
Now I woke me up with a cardinal bird
And when I wanna talk
He hangs on every word

And I^,m lost
And I^,m lost
I^,m lost at the bottom of the world
I^,m handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar
I^,m lost at the bottom of the world
