Artist/Band: Tom Waits
Lyrics for Song: Trampled Rose
Lyrics for Album: Glitter & Doom Live [2009]



Long way going to

Get my medicine

Sky's the autumn grey of a lonely wren



Piano from a window played

Gone tomorrow, gone yesterday



I found it in the street

At first I did not see

Lying at my feet

A trampled rose



Passing the hat in church

It never stops going around



You never pay just once

To get the job done



What I done to me,

I done to you

What happened to the trampled rose?



In the muddy street

With the fireworks and leaves



A blind man with a cup I asked

Would he sing 'Kisses Sweeter Than Wine'



I know that rose,

Like I know my name

The one I gave my love,

It was the same

Now I find it in the street,

A trampled rose
