Anywhere I Lay My Head


My head is spinning 'round

My heart is in my shoes

I went and set the Thames on fire

Now I must come back down

She's laughing in her sleeve at me

I can feel it in my bones

But anywhere, I'm gonna'

Lay my head, boys

I will call my home



Well I see that

The world is upside-down

My pockets were filled up with gold

Now the clouds have covered o'er

And the wind is blowing cold

No, I don't need anybody

Because I learned to be alone

And anywhere

I lay my head, boys

I will call my home



-Tom Waits
