Rain Dogs

Tom Waits

   Splashing the wine
   With all the rain dogs
   Taxi, we'd rather walk
   with the rain dogs
   For I am a rain dog too
   Oh, how we danced and we swallowed the night
   For it was all ripe for dreaming
   Oh how we danced away all of the lights
   We've always been out of our minds
   
2. The rum pours strong and thin
   Beat out the dustmen
   with the rain dogs
   Aboard a shipwrecked train
   give my umbrella
   to the rain dogs
   for I am a rain dog too
   Oh, how we danced with the rose of Tralee
   Her long hair black as a raven
   Oh, how we danced and you wispered to me
   You'll never be going back home
