about

Based on an experience James had at a Tom Waits concert in San Francisco with Rena and Libbie. James' most earnest attempt at writing a Tom Waits song.

lyrics

Wine-soaked dollar, call me by name
Harden your heart to that oncoming train
Put your ear to the dirt; you know it's coming back again

Wine-soaked dollar, bleeding and red
Ain't nothing else to kick around 'cept bad thoughts, stale bread
I'll call you tomorrow, we'll play that old radio song

Wine-soaked dollar in my head too long
Wine-soaked dollar all along

Wine-soaked dollar, carpet the tracks
Cast more coal on the fire, make that clickity-clack
By noon-time on Sunday you'll be drinking that whiskey alone again (hah!)

Wine-soaked dollar, strung out on the steps
Bumming smokes from some college kid 'cause you ain't quit yet
You see them down by the rail yard
Pretending they're living desperate days
So they sing, so they say, they're singing

Wine-soaked dollar in my head too long
Wine-soaked dollar all along
