Tom Waits - Tom Traubert's Blues (Four Sheets to the Wind in Copenhagen), Small Change (1976)

This song always leaves me at a loss for words, simply because there are none strong enough to describe it.

oh momma.. how i love this song. I remember a mentor of mine that i really respected gave me this album. He had given me books and music and all were hard to digest but throughly satisfying once done.. this was what seemed a journey too far for me to like that crazy voice and strange humorous yet sad as hell lyrics .. But i respected the hell out of this guy, so i played this album under my pillow for a month until I "got it." And when I got it, it changed my life.

I remember the first time I heard this song. I was in Venice at Umbertos house and we had just finished the best meal ever. Pipes had been lit around the table, plates were being cleared and then this was put on for me. One of those moments you dont forget, feelings of sadness and feelings of joy. I miss stuff.

The song is written in Copenhagen in 1976, where Tom Waits meets danish singer, Mette Mathilde Bondo, called Mathilde. Tom asks Mathilde to go back to the US with him, but she declines. It's a really beautiful song!"...and good night to Mathilda too!"

Great Masterpiece, but isn't this Waltzing Matilda?

I think most men will truly get this song one time in their lives. It is so emotion filled that it makes me feel fit to burst. Incredible

Sometimes, I feel miserable and than I put on some of Tom Waits' songs and everything starts to make sence. Somehow. I still feel quite miserable but it's different.

SOME OF THE STRONGEST LYRICS EVER:Wasted and wounded, it ain't what the moon didI've got what I paid for nowSee ya tomorrow, hey Frank, can I borrowA couple of bucks from you?To go Waltzing Mathilda, Waltzing MathildaYou'll go Waltzing Mathilda with meI'm an innocent victim of a blinded alleyAnd I'm tired of all these soldiers hereNo one speaks English, and every thing's brokenAnd my Stacys are soaking wetTo go Waltzing Mathilda, Waltzing MathildaYou'll go Waltzing Mathilda with meNow the dogs are barking and the taxi cab's parkingA lot they can do for meI begged you to stab me, you tore my shirt openAnd I'm down on my knees tonightOld Bushmills I staggered, you buried the dagger inYour silhouette window lightTo go Waltzing Mathilda, Waltzing MathildaYou'll go Waltzing Mathilda with meNow I lost my Saint Christopher now that I've kissed herAnd the one-armed bandit knowsAnd the Maverick Chinamen, and the cold-blooded signsAnd the girls down by the strip-tease shows goWaltzing Mathilda, Waltzing MathildaYou'll go Waltzing Mathilda with meNo, I don't want your sympathy, the fugitives sayThat the streets aren't for dreaming nowManslaughter dragnets and the ghosts that sell memoriesThey want a piece of the action anyhow goWaltzing Mathilda, Waltzing MathildaYou'll go Waltzing Mathilda with meAnd you can ask any sailor, and the keys from the jailerAnd the old men in wheelchairs knowThat Mathilda's the defendant, she killed about a hundredAnd she follows wherever you may goWaltzing Mathilda, Waltzing MathildaYou'll go Waltzing Mathilda with meAnd it's a battered old suitcase to a hotel someplaceAnd a wound that will never healNo Prima Donna, the perfume is onAn old shirt that is stained with blood and whiskeyAnd goodnight to the street sweepersThe night watchman flame keepers and goodnight to Mathilda too
