letra de shore leave (2023 remaster) - tom waits
[verse 1]
well, with buckshot eyes and a purple heart
i rolled down the national stroll
with a big fat paycheck strapped to my hip sack
and a shore leave wristw-tch underneath my sleeve
in a hong kong drizzle on cuban heels
i rowed down the gutter to the blood bank
and i’d left all my papers on the ticonderoga
and i was in bad need of a shave
i slopped at the corner on cold chow mein
and shot billiards with a midget until the rain stopped
and i bought a long-sleeved shirt with horses on the front
and some gum and a lighter and a knife
and a new deck of cards with girls on the back
and i sat down and wrote a lеtter to my wife
[chorus]
and i said, “baby
i’m so far away from home
and i miss my baby so
i can’t makе it by myself
i love you so”
[verse 2]
well, i was pacing myself, trying to make it all last
squeezing all the life out of a lousy two-day pass
and i had a cold one at the dragon with some filipino floor show
and i talked baseball with a lieutenant over a singapore sling
and i wondered how the same moon outside over this chinatown fair
could look down on illinois and find you there
and you know i love you, baby
[chorus]
i’m so far away from home
i’m so far away from home
and i miss my baby so
i can’t make it by myself
i love you so
[outro]
