Tom Waits: Vocal, piano
Greg Cohen: Bass

She's my only true love
she's all that I think of
look here in my wallet
that's her
She grew up on a farm there
there's a place on my arm
where I've written her name
next to mine
you see I just can't
live without her
and I'm her only boy
and she grew up outside McHenry
in Johnsburg, Illinois

  • Time
    "Well the smart money's on Harlow and the moon is in the street
    And the shadow boys are breaking all the laws

    And the rain sounds like a round of applause..."
  • Heartattack And Vine
    "liar liar with your pants on fire, white spades hangin' on the telephone

    "it's too early for the circus, it's too late for the bars, no one's sleepin'
    but the paperboys, and no one in this town is makin' any noise, but the dogs
    and the milkmen and me.
    the girls around here all look like cadillacs, no one likes a stranger here,..."
  • Downtown
    "red pants and the sugarman in, the temple street gloom, drinkin' chivas
    regal in a four dollar room, just another dead soldier in a powder blue night,
