Tom Waits A Sight for Sore Eyes song lyrics

A sight for sore eyes it's a long time no see

Workin' hard hardly workin

Hey man, you know me

Water under the bridge did y'a see my new car

Well it's bought and it's payed for parked outside of the bar

And hey barkeeper what's keepin you keep pourin' drinks

For all these palookas hey you know what I thinks

That we toast to the old days and diMaggio too

And old Drysdale and Mantle, Whitey Ford and to you

No the old gang ain't around everyone has left town

Except for Thumm and Giardina said they just might be down

Oh half drunk all the time and I'm all drunk the rest

Yea monk's Still the champion but I'm the best

And hey barkeeper what's keepin you keep pourin' drinks

For all these palookas hey you know what I thinks

That we toast to the old days and diMaggio too

And old Drysdale and Mantle, Whitey Ford and to you

I guess you heard about Nash he was killed in a crash

Oh that must of been two or three years ago now

Yea he spun out and he rolled he hit a telephone pole

And he died with the radio on

Oh she's married and with a kid finally split up with Syd

He's up north for a nickle's worth for armed robbery

Hey I'll play you some pin ball

Hell you ain't got a chance

Well then go on over and ask her to dance

And hey barkeeper what's keepin you keep pourin' drinks

For all these palookas hey you know what I thinks

That we toast to the old days and diMaggio too

And old Drysdale and Mantle, Whitey Ford and to you
