Ripped shirt, black eye. Tuxedo, bow tie. Dark sound, straight road. Get lost, get loaded. Enlisted men, off duty. Stolen clouds, dark beauty. Cold gun, wild rose. Night clerk, door closed.

And another one, Baby Gonna Leave Me, can be found in the Seattle Weekly, the Chicago Reader, the Washington City Paper and the Salt Lake City Weekly:
FORD '49 MY BABY WENT AND LEFT ME in a '49 Ford. Going down the highway in a 49 sword. My baby ripped my heart out with every turn of the moon. Somebody told me there's never been a rose without a thorn. Na na na na na na na na na na na na. TOM WAITS REAL GONE epitaph.com |
The Chicago Reader and the Salt Lake City Weeklyalso carry the reference to Don't Go Into That Barn.

The first one to find another Real Gone reference - or even better: a scanned image - from a different song gets a Gmail invitation.)
