God’s Away on Business Lyrics – Tom Waits

God’s Away on Business Lyrics by Tom Waits

I’d sell your heart to the junkman
Baby, for a buck, for a buck
If you’re looking for someone to pull you uut of that ditch
You’re out of luck, you’re out of luck

Ship is sinking
The ship is sinking
The ship is sinking
There’s leak, there’s a leak, in the boiler room

The poor, the lame, the blind
Who are the ones that we kept in charge?
Killers, thieves, and lawyers
God’s away, God’s away

God’s away on business
Business
God’s away, God’s away
God’s away on business

Business
Digging up the dead with a shovel and a pick
It’s a job, it’s a job
Bloody moon rising with a plague and a flood

Join the mob, join the mob
It’s all over, it’s all over, it’s all over
And there’s a leak, there’s a leak, in the boiler room
The poor, the lame, the blind

Who are the ones that we kept in charge?
Killers, thieves, and lawyers
God’s away, God’s away, God’s away
On Business

Business
God’s away, God’s away
On Business
Business, ha

g#dd#mn there’s always such a big temptation
To be good, to be good
There’s always free cheddar in a mousetrap, baby
It’s a deal, it’s a deal

God’s away, God’s away, God’s away
On business
Business
God’s away, God’s away, God’s away

On business
Business
I narrow my eyes like a coin slot baby
Let her ring, let her ring

God’s away, God’s away
God’s away on business
God’s away, God’s away
God’s away on business, business
