Текст песни Tom Waits - Jitterbug Boy

Текст:

Well, I'm a jitterbug boy by the shoe-shine resting on my laurels and my Hardys too life of Riley on a swing shift gears follow my drift Once upon a time I was in show-biz too I seen the Brooklyn Dodgers playin at Ebbets Field seen the Kentucky Derby too it's fast women, slow horses, I'm reliable sources and I'm holding up a lamp post if you want to know I seen the Wabash Cannonball, buddy, I've done it all beause I slept with the lions and Marilyn Monroe had breakfast in the eye of a hurricane fought Rocky Marciano, played Minnesota Fats burned hundred-dollar bills, I eaten Mulligan stew got drunk with Louis Armstrong what's that old song? I taught Mickey Mantle everything that he knows and so you ask me what I'm doing here holding up a lamp post flippin this quarter, trying to make up my mind and if it's heads I'll go to Tennessee, and tails I'll buy a drink if it lands on the edge I'll keep talking to you
