Tom Waits - So It Goes Lyrics
If I was a seagull high in a loof
I'd sail to the highest perch on your roof
But I ain't no seagull, you know my name
And the winds blowin fortune, the winds blowin pain
And so it goes, nobody knows
If I was a puppy dog in the early dawn
I'd make it to your house and sleep on your lawn
but I ain't no puppydog, you know my name
And the wind blows fortune, the wind blows pain
And so it goes, nobody knows
How to get to the sky, how to get to the sky
How to get to the sky, how to get to the sky

Tom Waits So It Goes Comments
Clearly that one dislike has no idea what True good taste in music really is
a mastepiece! genius!!
Reminds me of Dink's song, probably was inspired by it right?
If I was a seagull high in a loof
I'd sail to the highest perch on your roof
But I ain't a seagull, you know my name
And the winds blow fortune, the winds blow pain
And so it goes, nobody knows
How to get to the sky, how to get to the sky
If I was a puppy dog in the early dawn
I'd make it to your house and sleep on your lawn
but I ain't no puppy dog, you know my name
And the winds blow fortune, the winds blow pain
And so it goes, nobody knows
How to get to the sky, how to get to the sky
How to get to the sky, how to get to the sky
bruce springsteen wants to be Tom Waits when he grows up
Looks like puppy dog knows it... maybe better than seagull :~)
If I was a seagull high in a loof
I'd sail to the highest perch on your roof
But I ain't no seagull, you know my name
And the winds blowin fortune, the winds blowin pain
And so it goes, nobody knows
How to get to the sky, how to get to the sky
If I was a puppy dog in the early dawn
I'd make it to your house and sleep on your lawn
but I ain'ty no puppydog, you know my name
And the wind blows fortune, the wind blows pain
and so it goes, nobody knows
How to get to the sky, how to get to the sky

Yeah, that's what I thought
And you have achieved what in your life?
Springsteen is an over-rated Jersey douche...
kurt vonnegut.
@mattieryan Yes . . . and Springsteen was and is a huge admirer of Tom Waits (what sane musician isn't?!?) . . . so it isn't surprising that Nebraska has a bit of Waits in it . . .
This came out before Nebraska. But that was my first reaction too.
@07328281 Nebraska . . . that is a perfect album . . . this does have a somewhat similar feel to that album. This is a brilliant song . . . Tom Waits is a genius, no mistake
