Romeo Is Bleeding - Tom Waits

Lyrics

words to study

romeo is bleeding but not so as you'd notice

he's over on 18hh street as usual

lookin' so hard against the hood of his car

and puttin' out a cigarette in his hand

and for all the pachucos at the pumps

at romeros paint and body

they all seein' how far they can spit

well it was just another night

but how they're huddled in the brake lights of a 58 belair

and listenin' to how romeo killed a sherrif his knife

and they all jump when they hear the sirens

but romeo just laughs and says

all the racket in the world ain't never gonna

save that coppers ass

he'll never see another summertime for gunnin' down my brother

and leavin' him like a dog beneath a car without his knife

and romeo says hey man gimme a cigarette

and they all reach for their pack

and frankie lights it for him and pats him on the back
