Whistle Down The Wind (2023 Remaster) Tom Waits

[Verse 1]
Well, I grew up here, all of my life
And I dreamed someday I'd go
Where the blue-eyed girls and red guitars
And the naked rivers flow

[Verse 2]
Now I'm not all I thought I'd be
I've always stayed around
I've been as far as Mercy and Grand
Frozen to the ground

[Verse 3]
Well, I can't stay here and I'm scared to leave
So kiss me once and then
I'll go to Hell, I might as well
Be whistlin' down the wind

[Verse 4]
Bus is at the corner
The clock on the wall
A brokеn-down windmill
Ain't no wind at all

[Verse 5]
Well, I yelled and I cursеd
If I stay here, I'll rust
And I'm stuck like a shipwreck
Out here in the dust
