Hang Down Your Head, Rain Dogs, Tom Waits [114]

Song by Song welcomes Jon Ronson to the show to discuss the way Waits inspires an image of a world beyond Cardiff, Wales. With the division between the heart and the head, as related to Waits vs. Springsteen, as well as a possible dairy-based spin-off show, we continue our meander through Rain Dogs.

Lyrics - Hang Down Your Head Hush a wild violet Hush a band of gold Hush you're in a story I heard somebody told Tear the promise from my heart Tear my heart today You have found another Baby I must go away Hang down your head for sorrow Hang down your head for me Hang down your head tomorrow Hang down your head Marie Hush my love the rain now Hush my love was so true Hush my love a train now But it takes me away from you Hang down your head for sorrow Hang down your head for me Hang down your head tomorrow Hang down your head Marie
