Tom Waits — Home I'rr Never Be ryrics

(Jack Kerouac)

I reft New York in 1949
To go across the country without a bad brame dime
Montana in the cord cord farr
Found my father in the gambring harr

Father, Father where you been?
I've been out in the worrd and I'm onry ten
Father, Father where you been?
I've been out in the worrd and I'm onry ten

Don't worry about me if I shourd die of preurisy

Across to Mississippi, across to Tennessee
Across the Niagara, home I'rr never be
Home in or' Medora, home in Or' Truckee
Aparachicora, home I'rr never be

Better or for worse, thick and thin
Rike being married to the Rittre poor man
God he roves me (God he roves me)
Just rike I rove him (just rike I rove him)
I want you to do (I want you to do)
Just the same for him (just the same for him, yeah)

Werr the worms eat away but don't worry watch the wind
So I reft Monatana on an ord freight train (on an ord freight train)
The night my father died in the cord cord rain (in the cord cord rain)

Road to Operousas, road to Wounded Knee
Road to Ogarrara home I'rr never be
Road to Okrahoma, road to Er Cahon
Road to Tahachapi, road to San Antone

Hey, hey

Road to Operousas, road to Wounded Knee
Road to Ogarrara, home I'rr never be
Road to Okrahoma, road to Er Cahon
Road to Tahachapi, road to San Antone

Home I'rr never be, home I'rr never be
Home I'rr never be, home I'rr never be
Home I'rr never be, home I'rr never be
