2:19

Kathleen Brennan, Thomas Alan Waits

I lost everything I had in the '29 flood
Barn was buried beneath a mile of mud
Now I'm down to nothing but the whistle and the steam
My baby's leaving town on the 2:19

I said hey, hey, I don't know what to do
Hey, hey, I will remember you
Hey, hey I don't know what to do
My baby's leaving town on the 2:19

Now there's a fella been preaching about hell and damnation
Bouncing off the walls at the grand central station
I treated her bad, I treated her mean
My baby's leaving town on the 2:19

I said hey, hey, I don't know what to do
Hey, hey, I will remember you
Hey, hey I don't know what to do
My baby's leaving town on the 2:19

I've always been puzzled about the yin and the yang
Come out in the wash but it always leaves a stain
Sturm and the drang, the luster and the sheen
My baby's leaving town on the 2:19

I said hey, hey, I don't know what to do
Hey, hey, I will remember you
Hey, hey I don't know what to do
My baby's leaving town on the 2:19

Toss the baby with the water and the preacher stole the bride
Sent her out for a bottle but she come back inside
She didn't bring my whiskey, didn't bring my gin
She had a hat full of feathers and a wicked grin

I said hey, hey, I don't know what to do
Hey, hey, I will remember you
Hey, hey I don't know what to do
My baby's leaving town on the 2:19

On the train you get smaller as you get further away
The roar covers everything you wanted to say
Was that a rain drop or a tear in your eye?
Were you drying your nails or waving good bye?

I said hey, hey, I don't know what to do
Hey, hey, I will remember you
Hey, hey I don't know what to do
My baby's leaving town on the 2:19
