Lyrics Table Top Joe - Tom Waits
I
knew
one
day
One,
one,
two,
one,
two,
three
Well
my
mama
didn't
want
me
On
the
day
I
was
born
I
was
born
without
a
body
I
got
nothing
but
scorn
But
I
always
loved
music
All
I
had
was
my
hands
I
dreamed
I'd
be
famous
And
I'd
work
at
The
Sands
Singing,
Tabletop
Joe,
Tabletop
Joe
Now
everyone
will
know
That
I'm
Tabletop
Joe
I
had
trouble
with
the
pedals
But
I
had
a
strong
left
hand
And
I
could
play
Stravinsky
On
a
baby
grand
I
said,
'I'm
gonna
join
the
circus
Cause
that's
where
I
belong'
So
I
went
to
Coney
Island
I
was
singing
this
song
Tabletop
Joe,
Tabletop
Joe
Now
everyone
knows
Yeah
I'm
Tabletop
Joe
They
gave
me
top
billing
In
the
Dreamland
show
I
had
my
own
orchestra
Starring
Tabletop
Joe
And
the
man
without
a
body
Proved
everyone
wrong
I
was
rich
and
I
was
famous
I
was
where
I
belonged,
yeah
Tabletop
Joe,
Tabletop
Joe
Now
everyone
knows,
yeah
Tabletop
Joe
Take
it
home
boy
