Famous Blue Raincoat (Live) [Plugged Tour 1998] Tori Amos

[Intro]
"The guys go off now and, um, we do a couple songs. I haven't done this one on the whole tour, so, um... it could be a disaster, so, you know, if I forget the words, just scream 'em. Okay. I know how you feel, lads. I need bigger hands. That's tough."

[Verse 1]
It's four in the morning, the end of December
I'm writing you now just to see if you're better
New York is cold, but i like where i'm living
There's music on Clinton Street all through the evening

[Pre-Chorus]
I hear that you're building your little house deep in the desert
You're living for nothing now, I hope you're keeping some kind of record, yes

[Chorus]
And Jane came by with a lock of your hair
She said that you gave it to her
That night that you planned to go clear
Did you ever go clear?

[Verse 2]
Last time we saw you you looked so much older
Your famous blue raincoat torn at the shoulder
Been to the station to meet every train
And you came home without Lili Marlene

[Pre-Chorus]
You treated my woman to a flake of your life
And when she came back she was nobody's wife
