Trashcan Tomcat

Call me trashcan tomcat*

I'm as lonesome as a song

Call me trashcan tomcat

And you will never call me wrong

Meet me in the silver starlight

When the dusty day is through

Wiggle through the door to midnight

I'll be waiting there for you

Baby set aside some downtime

Well baby take off your chain

Baby if you got the incline

I can ease you of your pain

Even madness has its season

Well you know it's difficult

Never ask to know the reason

When you can judge by the result

Call me trashcan tomcat

I'm as lonesome as a song

Call me trashcan tomcat

And you will never call me wrong

Here among the bones and fish tails

Beneath the Mississippi moon

I'll speak of love that never fails

I will even sing the tune

Call me trashcan tomcat

I'm as lonesome as a song

Call me trashcan tomcat

Lonely as the day is long

I will leave you in the morning

When my alley run is through

Disappear without a warning

But I will never leave you blue

I will search among the tatters

And the scaps of people's dreams

Sift the ash for all that matters

Try to tell you what it means

Call me trashcan tomcat

I'm as lonesome as a song

Call me trashcan tomcat

Lonely as the day is long

Just call me trashcan tomcat

Lonely as the day is long
