Artist/Band: Tom Waits
Lyrics for Song: Virginia Avenue
Lyrics for Album: Original Album Series [2011]



Well, I'm walking on down Virginia Avenue

Trying to find somebody to tell my troubles to.

Harold's club is closing, and everybody's going on home:

What's a poor boy to do?

I'll just get on back into my short, make it back to the fort

Sleep off all the crazy lizards inside of my brain.

There's got to be some place that's better than this

This life I'm leading's driving me insane



And let me tell you I'm dreaming...



Let me tell you that I'm dreaming to the twilight, this town has got me down.

I've seen all the highlights, I've been walking all around

I won't make a fuss, I'll take a Greyhound bus, carry me away from here:

Tell me, what have I got to lose?



Cause I'm walking on down Columbus Avenue

The bars are all closing, 'cause it's quarter to two

Every town I go to is like a lock without a key

Those I leave behind are catching up on me,

Let me tell you they're catching up on me, they're catching up on me

Catching up on me, catching up on me, catching up on me.
