Lyrics Bottom of the World - Tom Waits
My
Daddy
told
me,
lookin
back
The
best
friend
you'll
have
is
a
railroad
track
So
when
I
was
13
I
said,
I'm
rollin'
my
own,
And
I'm
leaving
Missouri
and
I'm
never
coming
home
And
I'm
lost
And
I'm
lost
I'm
lost
at
the
bottom
of
the
world
I'm
handcuffed
to
the
Bishop
and
the
barbershop
liar
I'm
lost
at
the
bottom
of
the
world
Satchel
puddin'
and
Lord
God
Mose
Sittin'
by
the
fire
with
a
busted
nose
That
fresh
egg
yeller
is
too
damn
rare
But
the
white
part
is
perfect
for
slickin'
down
your
hair
And
I'm
lost
And
I'm
lost
I'm
lost
at
the
bottom
of
the
world
I'm
handcuffed
to
the
Bishop
and
the
barbershop
liar
I'm
lost
at
the
bottom
of
the
world
Blackjack
Ruby
and
Nimrod
Cain
The
moon's
the
color
of
a
coffee
stain
Jesse
Franks
and
Birdy
Joe
Hoax
But
who
is
the
king
of
all
of
these
folks?
And
I'm
lost
And
I'm
lost
I'm
lost
at
the
bottom
of
the
world
I'm
handcuffed
to
the
Bishop
and
the
barbershop
liar
I'm
lost
at
the
bottom
of
the
world
Well
I
dined
last
night
with
Scarface
Ron
On
Telapia
fish
cakes
and
fried
black
swan
Razorweed
onion
and
peacock
squirrel
And
I
dreamed
all
night
about
a
beautiful
girl
And
I'm
lost
And
I'm
lost
I'm
lost
at
the
bottom
of
the
world
I'm
handcuffed
to
the
Bishop
and
the
barbershop
liar
I'm
lost
at
the
bottom
of
the
world
Well
God's
green
hair
is
where
I
slept
last
He
balanced
a
diamond
on
a
blade
of
grass
Now
I
woke
me
up
with
a
cardinal
bird
And
when
I
wanna
talk
he
Hangs
on
every
word
And
I'm
lost
And
I'm
lost
I'm
lost
at
the
bottom
of
the
world
I'm
handcuffed
to
the
Bishop
and
the
barbershop
liar
I'm
lost
at
the
bottom
of
the
world
