Pay Me Lyrics - Bad As Me - Tom Waits

They pay me not to come home 

Keeping me stoned 

I won't run away 

They say it's easy to get 

Stuck in this town 

Just like Joan 

You know I gave it all up for the stage 

They fill my cup up in the cage 

It's nobody's business but mine when I'm low 

To hold yourself up is not a crime here you know 

At the end of the world

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

I kick my foot at the lights 

I breathe it in all night 

There's a light on a canvas tree 

Money from home supporting me 

They pay me not to come 

I won't eat crow 

Ill stay away 

And though all roads will not lead you home my girl 

All roads lead to the end of the world 

I sewed a little luck up in the hem of my gown 

The only way down from the gallows is to swing 

And I'll wear boots instead of high heels 

And the next stage that I am on it will have wheels
