going out west þarký sözü

(tom waits/k. brennan)

well i´m going out west
where the wind blows tall
´cause tony franciosa
used to date my ma
they got some money out there
they´re giving it away
i´m gonna do what i want
do what i want
and i´m gonna get paid

little brown sausages
lying in the sand
i ain´t no extra baby
i´m a leading man
well my parole officer
will be proud of me
with my olds 88
and the devil on a leash
my olds 88
and the devil on a leash

well i kno karate, voodoo too
i´m gonna make myself available to you
i don´t need no make up
i got real scars
i got hair on my chest
i look good without a shirt

well i don´t lose my composure
in a high speed chase
well my friends think i´m ugly
i got a masculine face
i got some dragstrip courage
i can really drive a bed
i´m gonna change my name
to hannibal or maybe
just rex
change my name to hannibal
or maybe just rex

i´m gonna drive all night
take some speed
i´m gonna wait for the sun
to shine down on me
i cut a hole in my roof
in the shape of a heart

and i´m going out west
where they´ll appreciate me
going out west
going out west
