Song by Tom Waits<br /><br>

Crest fallen sidekick in an old cafe<br>

Never slept with a dream before he had to go away<br>

Theres a bell in the tower<br>

Uncle ray bought a round<br>

Dont worry about the army<br>

In the cold cold ground<br>

Now dont be a cry baby<br>

When theres wood in the shed<br>

Theres a bird in the chimmney<br>

And a stone in my bed<br>

When the roads washed out<br>

They pass the bottle around<br>

And wait in the arms<br>

Of the cold cold ground<br>

Cold cold ground<br>

Theres a ribbon in the willow<br>

And a tire swing rope<br>

And a briar patch of berries<br>

Takin over the slope<br>

The catll sleep in the mailbox<br>

And well never go to town<br>

Til we bury every dream in<br>

The cold cold ground<br>

Cold cold ground<br>

Gimme a winchester rifle and a whole box of shells<br>

Blow the roof off the goat barn<br>

Let it roll down the hill<br>

The piano is firewood<br>

Times square is a dream<br>

I find well lay down together in the cold cold ground<br>

Cold cold ground<br>

Cold cold ground<br>

Call the cops on the breedloves<br>

Bring a Bible and a rope<br>

And a whole box of rebel<br>

And a bar of soap<br>

Make a pile of trunk tires<br>

And burn em all down<br>

Bring a dollar with you baby<br>

In the cold cold ground<br>

Cold cold ground<br>

Take a weathervane rooster<br>

Throw rocks at his head<br>

Stop talking to the neighbors<br>

Til we all go dead<br>

Beware of my temper<br>

And the dog that Ive found<br>

Break all the windows in the<br>

Cold cold ground<br>

Cold cold ground<br>

<br>
