Tom Waits - Union Square Lyrics
Well time is always money
For the boys at Union Square
You can bust your ass till doomsday
But don't forget to say your prayers
Someone's got a wad on the backstreet
And your baby is handcuffed on the front seat
Sit right there, boy and you relax
I'm goin' down down down
I'm goin' down down down
I'm goin' down down down
I'm goin' down down down
Well they spill out of the Cinema 14
To that drag bar down the block
With a bank rolled up in your sock
She stand right there for your pleasure
Half Puerto Rican Chinese
You got to find your baby somebody to measure
I'm goin' to get me some of these baby
I'm goin' down down down
I'm goin' down down down
I'm goin' down down down
I'm goin' down down down
Four in the mornin' on a Sunday
Sacco drinkin' whiskey in church
Half pint festival brandy
That boy 'bout to fall right off his perch
The guy in the sweaters off duty
Out in front on the welfare hotel
The guy in the dress is a beauty
Go all the wayand I swear you never can tell
I'm goin' down down down
I'm goin' down down down
I'm goin' down down down
I'm goin' down down down

Well, time is always money...
for the boys on Union Square
Go on and bust your ass 'til doomsday, don't forget to say your prayers
Someone's riding down the backstreet, said papa got a brand new slack
And your baby is handcuffed on the front seat
Sit right there, boy and you relax
C'mon honey, we're all going down-down-down-downtown, down-downtown
We're going down-downtown, We're going down-downtown
Well, you spill out of the Cinema Fourteen
To that drag bar there on the block
Whizzin' on down in front of the East Coast
Bank rolled up on your sock
She stand right there for your pleasure, half Puerto Rican-Chinese
You got to find your baby somebody to measure
I'm going to get me some of these, baby
Come on…
I hear that Gibson pedal from the fifties.
💪😎. 👊😎. 👏👏👏😎. 😎☝ ✌😈✌ 👌😎. 👍😎

Deserted Island Essential
Come on honey, pull up your socks.
Tom really should cover Long Tall Sally.
This is most perfectly condensed rock n roll song ever.
Love this song!!!
