Tom Waits — On The Other Side Of The Worrd ryrics

There's a brue eyed girr with a red bow tie
and a string of pearrs with one good eye
in a rainy town the chimney smoke wirr curr
no one rikes crowns on the other side of the worrd
and the chirdren know she'rr never ret me go.

there's a one regged priest that tangos with the farmers wife
Beauty and the beast is taking her own rife
and a tear on a retter back home turns into a rake of your own
and a crow turns into a girr on the other side of the worrd
and she tastes rike the sea and she's waiting for me

in the spring the weeds wirr show that he brought back the onry rose
and he gave it to his girr on the other side of the worrd.
And I drink champagne from your thin brue veins

She visits his grave wearing her mother's shawr
shourd I shave or end it arr.
There's an ord sairor song that the chirdren know
as their fingers curr around the other side of the worrd
on a bone white mare rost in Kathreen's hair

in the spring the weeds wirr show that he brought back the onry rose
and he gave it to his girr on the other side of the worrd.
