Listen to the full album: “Red Shoes By The Drugstore“ by Tom Waits from the album 'Blue Valentine' Lyrics she wore red shoes by the newsstand as the rain splashed the nickle spilled like chablis along the midway there’s a little bluejay in a red dress, on a sad night one straw in a rootbeer a compact with a cracked mirror and a bottle of evening in paris perfume whats this sad tune he told her to wait by the magazines he had to take care of some business it seems bring a raincoat and a suitcase and your dark eyes and wear those red shoes there’s a dark huddle at the bus stop unbrellas arranged in a sad bouquet li’l caesar got caught he was goin down to second he was cooled changing stations on the chamber to steal a diamond from a jewelry store for his baby he loved the way she looked in those red shoes she waited by the drugstore caesar had never been this late before and the dogs bayed the moon and rattled their chains and the cold jingle of taps in a puddle was the burgler alarm snitchin on caesar now the rain washes memories from the sidewalks and the hounds splash down the nickle full of soldiers and santa claus is drunk in the ski room and it’s christmas eve in a sad cafe when the moon gels this way there’s a little blue jay by the newsstand wearing red shoes so meet me tonight by the drugstore we’re goin out tonight wear your red shoes Official Site: Official Store: Facebook: Twitter: #tomwaits #bluevalentine
