Tom Waits - Warm Beer & Cold Women Lyrics
Warm beer and cold women, I just dont fit inEvery joint I stumbled into tonightThats just how its beenAll these double knit strangers withGin and vermouth and recycled storiesIn the naugahyde boothsWith the platinum blondesAnd tobacco brunettesIll be drinkin to forget youLite another cigaretteAnd the bands playin somethingBy tammy wynetteAnd the drinks are on me tonightAll my conversations Ill just beTalkin about you babyBorin some sailor as I try to get throughI just want him to listenThats all you have to doHe said Im better off without youTill I showed him my tattooNow the moons risingAint got no time to loseTime to get down to drinkingTell the band to play the bluesDrinks are on me, Ill buy another roundAt the last ditch attempt saloonWarm beer and cold women, I just dont fit inEvery joint I stumbled into tonightThats just how its beenAll these double knit strangers withGin and vermouth and recycled storiesIn the naugahyde boothsWith the platinum blondesAnd tobacco brunettesIll be drinking to forget youLite menthol cigaretteAnd the bands playing somethinBy johnnie barnettAnd the drinks are on me tonight
