Текст и слова песни Tom Waits – Black Market Baby
Black Market Baby
She lives in a house
That s way back off the road
There s a man with a lantern
And he carries her soul
A coal stove and a bed
A skillet and a hound
She drove a camel through
A needle
In this sinking board walk town
She s my Black Market Baby
She s my Black Market Baby
She s a diamond that
Wants to stay coal
Wants to stay coal
I swang out wide with her
On hells iron gate
Anything that you wanted
You could have
My eyes say their prayers to her
Sailors ring her bell
Like a moth mistakes a light bulb
For the moon and goes to hell
She s my Black Market Baby
She s my Black Market Baby
She s a diamond that
Wants to stay coal
Wants to stay coal
There s no prayer like desire
There s amnesia in her kiss
She s a swan and a pistol
And she will follow you like this
In Moverly, Missouri at the
Iroquois Hotel
She checked in with the President
And she ran up quite a Bill
(Chorus)
She s whiskey in a teacup
She gives blondes a lousy name
She s a Bonzai Aphrodite
And a ticket back to Spain
She s a hard way to go
And there ain t no way
To stop
Every time you play the red
The black is coming up
She s my Black Market baby
She s my Black Market baby
She s a diamond that
Wants to stay coal
Wants to stay coal
She lives in a house
That s way back off the road
There s a man with a lantern
And he carries her soul
A coal stove and a bed
A skillet and a hound
She drove a camel through
A needle
In this sinking board walk town
She s my Black Market Baby
She s my Black Market Baby
She s a diamond that
Wants to stay coal
Wants to stay coal
I swang out wide with her
On hells iron gate
Anything that you wanted
You could have
My eyes say their prayers to her
Sailors ring her bell
Like a moth mistakes a light bulb
For the moon and goes to hell
She s my Black Market Baby
She s my Black Market Baby
She s a diamond that
Wants to stay coal
Wants to stay coal
There s no prayer like desire
There s amnesia in her kiss
She s a swan and a pistol
And she will follow you like this
In Moverly, Missouri at the
Iroquois Hotel
She checked in with the President
And she ran up quite a Bill
(Chorus)
She s whiskey in a teacup
She gives blondes a lousy name
She s a Bonzai Aphrodite
And a ticket back to Spain
She s a hard way to go
And there ain t no way
To stop
Every time you play the red
The black is coming up
She s my Black Market baby
She s my Black Market baby
She s a diamond that
Wants to stay coal
Wants to stay coal
