07 Sep 06 - 10:53 AM (#1829230) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Oh the Sun is comin up........ From: GUEST Ol' 55 (Tom Waits) Well my time went so quickly, I went lickety-splickly out to my old '55 As I drove away slowly, feeling so holy, God knows, I was feeling alive. Now the sun's coming up, I'm riding with Lady Luck, freeway cars and trucks, Stars beginning to fade, and I lead the parade Just a-wishing I'd stayed a little longer, Oh, Lord, let me tell you that the feeling's getting stronger. And it's six in the morning, gave me no warning; I had to be on my way. Well there's trucks all a-passing me, and the lights are all flashing, I'm on my way home from your place. And now the sun's coming up, I'm riding with Lady Luck, freeway cars and trucks, Stars beginning to fade, and I lead the parade Just a-wishing I'd stayed a little longer, Oh, Lord, let me tell you that the feeling's getting stronger. And my time went so quickly, I went lickety-splickly out to my old '55 As I pulled away slowly, feeling so holy, God knows, I was feeling alive. Now the sun's coming up, I'm riding with Lady Luck, Freeway cars and trucks, freeway cars and trucks, freeway cars and trucks... (Was also done by Marty Stuart, but I don't know who wrote it.) |

I started with a google of the sun is coming up, lyrics That took me to the following: MARTY STUART: "The Sun's Coming Up"MARTY STUART: "The Sun's Coming Up". Home » M » MARTY STUART » The Sun's Coming Up Lyrics. Removed. Auction Soccer Online - Auction Soccer Online ... www.zokky.com/artist_m/marty_stuart_lyrics/the_suns_coming_up_lyrics.html - 16k - Cached - Similar pages A few sites on that googlr page indicated that Marty Stuart was not disclosing the lyrics (there's been lots of that lately). However, it showed also that something in the song was 'the sun's coming up'. So, I googled the sun's coming up, lyrics It led to a page that stsrted with a few Marty Stuart 'sites'. But one site about six or seven down the page had this: Tom Waits: Closing Time - LyricsNow the sun's coming up, I'm riding with Lady Luck, freeway cars and trucks, Stars beginning to fade, and I lead the parade ... www.officialtomwaits.com/music/m_ct_lyr.htm - 18k - Cached - Similar pages The blurb shows some other words you mentioned in your post. And therein were the lyrics with the title. Please note that if you use quotation marks, it very narrowly restricts google's search. I have found I use the quotation marks when what I'm looking for isn't easily available. That's when searching gets difficult (and fun). I do not mean to sound know-it-all or condescending. I hope this will help you in future. |

08 Sep 06 - 06:04 PM (#1830273) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Oh the Sun is comin up........ From: Jim Dixon Tom Waits wrote OL' '55. (Should there be one apostrophe or two? I'd vote for two, but nature seems to abhor two successive apostrophes.) In fact, Tom Waits wrote nearly everything he ever recorded—that's 20 or so original albums besides "best of" compilations. Others who recorded it were Dave Alvin, Eric Andersen, The Eagles, Richie Havens, The Jazz Mandolin Project, Ian Matthews, and Sarah McLachlan. |
