Red Shoes By The Drugstore Lyrics - Blue Valentine - Tom Waits

She wore red shoes by the newstand 

As the rain splashed the nickle 

Spilled like chablis all along the midway 

There's a little bluejay 

Red dress, sad night 

One straw in a rootbeer 

A compact with a cracked mirror 

A bottle of evening in Paris perfume 

What's this sad tune? 

He told her to wait by the magazines 

Take care of some business it seems 

Bring a raincoat 

Bring a suitcase 

Bring your dark eyes 

And wear those red shoes

There's a dark huddle at the bus stop 

Unbrellas arranged in a sad bouquet 

lil' Cesaer got caught 

He has going down to second 

He has cooled 

Changing stations on the chamber 

To steal a diamond ring 

From a jewelry store for his baby 

He loved the way she looked 

In those red shoes 

She waited by the drugstore 

Cesaer had never been late before 

Dogs bayed the moon 

And rattled their chains 

And the cold jingle of taps in a puddle 

Was the burgler alarm 

Snitchin' on Cesaer

The rain washes memories from the sidewalks 

And the hounds splash down the nickle 

Full of soldiers 

Santa Claus is drunk in the ski room 

It's christmas eve 

In a sad cafe 

When the moon gets this way 

There's a little bluejay 

By the newstand 

Red shoes, red shoes 

Meet me tonight by the drugstore 

Meet me tonight by the drugstore 

Meet me tonight by the drugstore 

We're goin' out tonight 

We're goin' out tonight 

We're goin' out tonight 

Wear your red shoes 

Red shoes, red shoes, red shoes, red shoes
