Cold Water Lyrics by Tom Waits

Cold Water Lyrics

    Well I woke up this morning
    With the cold water
    With the cold water
    With the cold water
    Woke up this morning
    With the cold water
    With the cold water
    With the cold

    Police at the station
    And they don't look friendly
    Well they don't look friendly
    Well they don't look friendly
    Police at the station
    And they don't look friendly
    They don't look friendly well
    They don't

    Blind or crippled
    Sharp or dull
    I'm reading the Bible
    By a 40 watt bulb
    What price freedom
    Dirt is my rug
    Well I sleep like a baby
    With the snakes and the bugs

    Well the stores are open
    But I ain't got no money
    I ain't got no money
    Stores are open but I
    Ain't got no money
    Ain't got no money
    Well I ain't

    Found an old dog
    And he seems to like me
    Seems to like me
    Well he seems to like me
    Found an old dog and he
    Seems to like me
    Seems to like me
    Well he seems

    Seen them fellows
    with the card board signs
    Scrapin up a little $
    To buy a bottle of wine
    Pregnant women and
    The Vietnam vets I say
    Beggin on the freeway
    Bout as hard as it gets

    Well I slept in the graveyard
    It was cool and still
    Cool and still
    It was cool and still
    Slept in the graveyard
    It was cool and still
    Cool and still and it
    Was cool

    Slept all night in the Cedar grove
    I was born to ramble
    Born to rove
    Some men are searchin for the
    Holy Grail
    But there ain't nothin sweeter
    Than ridin the rails

    I love 47 but I'm 24
    Well they shooed me away
    From here the time before
    Turned there their backs
    And they locked their doors
    I'm watching T.V. in
    The window of a furniture store

    Well I woke up this morning
    With the cold water
    With the cold water
    With the cold water
    Woke up this morning
    With the cold water
    With the cold water
    With the cold
