Texty písní » Tom Waits - Christmas Card From A Hooker In Minneapolis
Hey Charlie I'm pregnant
and living on the 9th street
right above a dirty bookstore
of Euclid avenue
and I stopped takin dope
and I quit drinkin whiskey
and my old man plays the trombone
and works out at the track
and he says that he loves me
even though it`s not his baby
and he says that he'll raise him up
like he would his own son
and he gave me a ring
that was worn by his mother
and he takes me out dancin
every Saturday night.
And hey, Charlie, I think about you
everytime I pass a fillin station
on account of all the grease
you used to wear in your hair
and I still have that record
of Little Anthony & The Imperials
but someone stole my record player
now how do you like that?
Hey Charlie, I almost went crazy
after Mario got busted
so I went back to Omaha to
live with my folks
but everyone I used to know
was either dead or in prison
So I came back to Minneapolis
this time I think I'm gonna stay.
Hey, Charlie, I think I'm happy
for the first time since my accident
and I wish I had all the money
that we used to spend on dope
I'd buy me a used car lot
and I wouldn't sell any of em
I'd just drive a different car
every day, dependin' on how I feel
Hey, Charlie, for chrissakes,
do you want to know the truth of it?
I don't have a husband
he don't play the trombone
and I need to borrow money
to pay this lawyer
Charlie, hey,
I'll be eligible for parole
come valentines day
