Noirsville Tune of the Week

 More Tom Waits



Please Call Me Baby

The evening fell just like a star

Left a trail behind

You spit as you slammed out the door

If this is love we're crazy

As we fight like cats and dogs

But I just know there's got to be more


So please call me, baby

Wherever you are

It's too cold to be out walking in the streets

We do crazy things when we're wounded

Everyone's a bit insane

I don't want you catching your death of cold

Out walking in the rain


I admit that I ain't no angel

I admit that I ain't no saint

I'm selfish and I'm cruel and I'm blind

If I exorcise my devils

Well my angels may leave too

When they leave they're so hard to find


So please call me, baby

Wherever you are

It's too cold to be out walking in the streets

We do crazy things when we're wounded

Everyone's a bit insane

I don't want you catching your death of cold

Out walking in the rain


We're always at each other's throats

It drives me up the wall

Most of the time I'm just blowing off steam

And I wish to God you'd leave me

And I wish to God you'd stay

Life's so different than it is in your dreams


So please call me, baby

Wherever you are

It's too cold to be out walking in the streets

We do crazy things when we're wounded

Everyone's a bit insane

I don't want you catching your death of cold

Out walking in the rain
