Tom Waits- Low Down
On "orphans brawlers bawlers & bastards"
2006
[B]She's a crooked Sheriff in a [F#]real straight town
She opened the door shake shake the lights go down
[B]Clover honey and the Jimson Weed
R[E]ed leather skirt way up above her knees
[B]Oh yeah, [E]my baby[F#]'s lowdown
She's a gone lost dirt road
There ain't no way back I been told
Well she's a story they all tell
She's a rebel, she's a yell
Oh yeah, my baby's lowdown
[E7]White heat in a cold rain
I'm[B] a mergin here in your mergin lane
Jocke[E]y La Fayette, Big Eyed Al
The se[F#]cond hand moon's shining for my gal
She's a big red flag in a mean bullpen
She'll steal it from you, sell right
Back to you again
Well she's a whild rose, she's not settled
Cold gun of ice blue metal, oh
My baby's lowdown
White heat in a cold rain
I'm a mergin here in your mergin lane
Jockey la Fayette, Big Eyed Al
She's a cheap motel with a burned out sign
She'll take care of you definitely every time
She got a stolen check book and leg's upto here
Singing into a hairbrush
Right in front of the mirror
Oh yeah, my baby's lowdown
