《The One That Got Away(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] The One That Got Away (LP版) - Tom Waits (汤姆·威兹)

[00:00:00] Written by：Tom Waits

[00:00:19] The jigolo's jumping salty

[00:00:20] Ain't no trade out on the streets

[00:00:23] Half past the unlucky

[00:00:25] And the hawk's a front row seat

[00:00:27] Dressed in full orchestration

[00:00:29] Stage door Johnny's got to pay

[00:00:32] And send him home

[00:00:33] Talking bout the one that got away

[00:00:36] Could a been on easy street

[00:00:39] Could a been a wheel

[00:00:41] With irons in the fire

[00:00:43] And all them business deals

[00:00:45] But the last of the big time losers

[00:00:47] Shouted before he drove away

[00:00:50] I'll be right back as soon as I crack

[00:00:52] The one that got away

[00:00:55] The ambulance drivers don't give a shit

[00:00:58] They just want to get off work

[00:00:59] And the short stop and the victim

[00:01:01] Have already gone berserk

[00:01:03] And the shroud tailor measures him

[00:01:05] For a deep six holiday

[00:01:08] The stiff is froze the case is closed

[00:01:10] On the one that got away

[00:01:32] Jim crow's directing traffic

[00:01:33] With them cemetery blues

[00:01:36] With those peculiar looking trousers

[00:01:38] And them old Italian shoes

[00:01:40] The wooden kimono was all ready

[00:01:42] To drop in San Francisco bay

[00:01:44] But now he's mumbling something

[00:01:46] All about the one that got away

[00:01:48] Costello was the champion

[00:01:51] At the st Morita hotel

[00:01:54] And the best this side of fair fax

[00:01:56] Reliable sources tell

[00:01:58] But his reputation is at large

[00:02:00] And he's at Ben Frank's every day

[00:02:03] Waiting for the one that got away

[00:02:06] He's got a snake skin sport shirt

[00:02:09] And he looks like Vincent price

[00:02:11] With a little piece of chicken

[00:02:13] And he's carving off a slice

[00:02:16] But someone tipped her off

[00:02:17] She'll be doing a Houdini now any day

[00:02:20] She shook his hustle

[00:02:22] The greyhound bus'll

[00:02:23] Take the one that got away

[00:02:26] Andre is at the piano

[00:02:27] Behind the ivar in the sewers

[00:02:30] With a buck a shot for pop tunes

[00:02:32] And a fin for guided tours

[00:02:34] He could of been in Casablanca

[00:02:36] He stood in line out there all day

[00:02:38] But now he's spilling whiskey

[00:02:40] And learning songs about the one that got away

[00:03:01] Well I've lost my equilibrium

[00:03:03] My car keys and my pride

[00:03:06] Tattoo parlor's warm

[00:03:07] And so I huddle there inside

[00:03:10] The grinding of the buzz saw

[00:03:12] What you want that thing to say

[00:03:14] Just don't misspell her name

[00:03:16] Buddy she's the one that got away
