A Sight For Sore Eyes Lyrics - Used Songs (1973-1980) - Tom Waits

A sight for sore eyes it's a long time no see 

Workin' hard hardly workin 

Hey man, you know me 

Water under the bridge did y'a see my new car 

Well it's bought and it's payed for parked outside of the bar 

And hey barkeeper what's keepin you keep pourin' drinks 

For all these palookas hey you know what I thinks 

That we toast to the old days and diMaggio too 

And old Drysdale and Mantle, Whitey Ford and to you

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

No the old gang ain't around everyone has left town 

Except for Thumm and Giardina said they just might be down 

Oh half drunk all the time and I'm all drunk the rest 

Yea monk's Still the champion but I'm the best 

And hey barkeeper what's keepin you keep pourin' drinks 

For all these palookas hey you know what I thinks 

That we toast to the old days and diMaggio too 

And old Drysdale and Mantle, Whitey Ford and to you 

I guess you heard about Nash he was killed in a crash 

Oh that must of been two or three years ago now 

Yea he spun out and he rolled he hit a telephone pole 

And he died with the radio on 

Oh she's married and with a kid finally split up with Syd 

He's up north for a nickle's worth for armed robbery 

Hey I'll play you some pin ball 

Hell you ain't got a chance 

Well then go on over and ask her to dance

And hey barkeeper what's keepin you keep pourin' drinks 

For all these palookas hey you know what I thinks 

That we toast to the old days and diMaggio too 

And old Drysdale and Mantle, Whitey Ford and to you
