With a Suitcase Lyrics – Tom Waits

With a Suitcase Lyrics by Tom Waits

With a suitcase, and a couple of bucks
I’m gonna skip this rhubarb, slide down the boulevard
I ain’t gonna take that dame with me
She’s full of malarkey

Just as soon as it’s dark, I’ll get a one-way token
On the first thing smokin’ out of town
And I’m goin’ out to East St. Louis, Kansas City, and Chicago
Wichita, New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Miami, Florida

Downtown Tulsa, Champaigne-Urbana
Bangor, all aboard, Houston and Atlanta
Goin’ to Joliet, Bernadette, maybe Philadelphia
‘Picket out to Tittsburgh’ , any burgh, hamburger

Springfield Junction, Primrose Lane
I may get me a nose-job and change my name
Jordan Occasionally ‘If You Want My Love’ (Live Performance) | Open Mic
Cause she drinks all my liquor and she steals all the covers

And she swears like a sailor
If I ever have to bail her out of jail again, I’m gonna lose my mind
Who needs the aggravation
Charlie, take me to the station

Get a one-way token on the first thing smokin’ out of town
And go out to East St. Louis, Kansas City, and Chicago
Wichita, New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Miami, Florida
Downtown Tulsa, Champaigne-Urbana

Bangor, all aboard, Houston and Atlanta
Goin’ to Joliet, Bernadette, maybe Philadelphia
‘Picket out to Tittsburgh’, any burgh, cheeseburger
Springfield Junction, Primrose Lane

I may get me a nose-job and change my name
