Tom Waits Warm Beer And Cold Women Lyrics

One of those nights

And it's warm beer and cold women, know I just don't fit in
Cause every joint I stumbled into tonight
That's just how it's been
All these double knit strangers with
gin and vermouth and recycled stories in the naugahyde booths

With the platinum blondes and tobacco brunettes
I'll be drinkin' to forget you
I'll light another cigarette
And the band's playing something by Tammy Wynette
And the drinks are on me tonight

All my conversations now I'll just be talkin' about you baby
Boring some sailor as I try to get through
I just want him to listen now
I said that's all you have to do
He said I'm better off without you till I showed him my tattoo

And now the moon's rising, ain't got no time to lose
Time to get down to drinking
Tell the band to play the blues
Now the drink's are on me, I'll buy a couple rounds
At the last ditch attempt saloon

Warm beer, cold women, No I just don't fit in
Every joint I stumbled into tonight
That's just how it's been
All these double knit strangers with gin and vermouth
Receding hairlines in the naugahyde booths

And the platinum blonde, tobacco brunette
I'll be drinking to forget you babe
I'll light a menthal cigarette
And the band's playing something by Johnnie Barnett
At the last ditch hotel saloon
