table top joe - tom waits lyrics

Loading...

well, my mama didn’t want me
on the day i was born

born without a body
i got nothin’ but scorn
but i always loved music
all i had was my hands
and i dreamed i’d be famous
and i’d work at the sands

tabletop joe tabletop joe
everyone knows tabletop joe

i had trouble with the pedals
but i had a strong left hand
and i could play stravinsky
on a baby grand

i said i’m gonna join the circus
’cause that’s where i belong
and i went to coney island
singing this song

tabletop joe tabletop joe
everyone knows tabletop joe

and they gave me top billing
in the dreamland show
i had my own orchestra
starring tabletop joe
and the man without a body
proved everyone wrong
i was rich and i was famous
and i was where i belonged

singing tabletop joe
tabletop joe
everyone knows tabletop joe

- tom waits lyrics
