Oily Night - Tom Waits

The prettiest girl

In all the world

Is in a little Spanish town

But I left her for a Bonnie lass

And I told her

I d see her around

But that Bonnie lass

And her heart of glass

Would not hold a candle

To bumming around

So don t cry for me For I m going away

And I ll be back some lucky day

Tell the boys back home

I m doing just fine

I left my troubles and woe

So sing about me For I can t come home

I ve many more miles to go Why, there s Miss Kelsey

You taught dance at our school

And old Johnny O Toole

I ll still beat you at pool

So don t cry for me For I m going away

And I ll be back some lucky day

Now when I was a boy

My daddy sat me on his knee

And he told me He told me many things

And he said sone

There s a lot of things in this world

You re gonna have no use for

ANd when you get blue

And you ve lost all your dreams

There s nothin like a campfire

And a can of beans

Why, there s Miss Kelsey

She taught dance at our school

And old Johnny O Toole

I ll still beat you at pool

So don t cry for me For I m going away

And I ll be back some lucky day
