Tom Waits - Once Upon A Town/Empty Pockets Lyrics

Send "Once Upon A Town/Empty Pockets" Ringtone to your Cell

Songwriters: Tom Waits

I wish I had a dollar
For each time I took a chance
On all those two-bit Romeos
Who count a thin romance

Somehow always thinking
Of the last time I fell down
Knowing that you fall in love
Once upon a town

Send "Once Upon A Town/Empty Pockets" Ringtone to your Cell
