Waits, Tom - Goin' Out West Lyrics






Well I'm goin' out west
Where the wind blows tall
'Cause Tony Franciosa
Used to date my ma
They got some money out there
They're giving it away
I'm gonna do what I want
Do what I want
And I'm gonna get paid

Little brown sausages
Lying in the sand
I ain't no extra baby
I'm a leading man
Well my parole officer
Will be proud of me
With my Olds 88
And the devil on a leash
My Olds 88
And the devil on a leash

Well I know karate, Voodoo too
I'm gonna make myself available to you
I don't need no make up
I got real scars
I got hair on my chest
I look good without a shirt

Well I don't lose my composure
In a high speed chase
Well my friends think I'm ugly
I got a masculine face
I got some dragstrip courage
I can really drive a bed
I'm gonna change my name
To Hannibal or maybe
Just Rex
Change my name to Hannibal
Or maybe just Rex

I'm gonna drive all night
Take some speed
I'm gonna wait for the sun
To shine down on me
I cut a hole in my roof
In the shape of a heart

And I'm goin' out west
Where they'll appreciate me
Goin' out west
Goin' out west

    regarding "I know Karate, Voodoo, too": All kinds of radish and other rooty plants, and all mechanisms of seeing their colours on flags and elsewhere "from beneath", etc. Also the idiotic alleged "meaning" of wrong pronounciation of their names in some languages such as "Rettich" as "Rett'ich"– "Poof!"

    W.... T....

    Not to forget the crap worked on and as discrediting against those who leave over or refuse eating such …
