Big Black Mariah Lyrics - Rain Dogs - Tom Waits

Cuttin' through the cane break 

Rattling the sill 

Thunder that the rain makes 

When the shadow tops the hill 

Big light on the back street 

Hill to ever more, Packin' down the ladder 

With hammer to the floor 

Here comes the Big Black Mariah 

Here comes the Big Black Mariah 

Here comes the Big Black Mariah 

Here comes the Big Black Ford. 

Well he's all boxed up 

On a red bell dame 

Hunted Black Johnny with 

A blind man's cane 

A yellow bullet with a 

Rag out in the wind 

An old blind tiger 

Get an old bell Jim 

Mariah, Here comes the Big Black 

Mariah, Here comes the Big Black 

Mariah, Here comes the Big Black Ford. 

Sent to the skies on a 

Benny Jag Blue 

Off to bed without his supper 

Like the Linda brides do 

Now he's got to do the story 

With the old widow Jones... 

He's got s wooden coat this boy 

Is never coming home 

Here comes the Big Black Mariah 

Here comes the Big Black Mariah 

Here comes the Big Black Mariah 

Here comes the Big Black Ford. 

Cut through the 

Cane break...
