Tom Waits - On The Nickel

 (versiyon 1)
Metin boyutu: ( + Büyült ) ( - Küçült)   
Sticks and stones will break my bones

But I always will be true

And when your mama is dead and gone

I'll sing this lullaby just for you



And what becomes of all the little boys

Who never comb their hair?

Lined up all around the block

On the nickel over there



So you better bring a bucket

There is a hole in the pail

And if you don't get my letter

Then you'll know that I'm in jail



And what becomes of all the little boys

Who never say their prayers?

They're sleepin' like a baby

On the nickel over there



And if you chew tobacco

Wish upon a star

You'll find out where the scarecrows sit

Just like punchlines between the cars



And I know a place where a royal flush

Can never beat a pair

And even Thomas Jefferson

Is on the nickel over there



So ring around the rosie

Sleepin' in the rain

You're always late for supper

Man you let me down, let me down again



I thought I heard a mockingbird

Roosevelt knows where

Skip the light, with grady tuck

On the nickel over there



So what becomes of all the little boys

Who run away from home?

Well the world just keeps gettin' bigger

Once you get out on your own



So here's to all the little boys

Sandman takes you where

Sleepin' with a pillowman

On the nickel over there



Climb up through that button hole

Fall right up the stairs

I'll show you where the short dogs grow

On the nickel over there
