I found myself humming this song on the train ride home, and realized I haven’t listened to some old Tom Waits songs in a while, so I thought I’d bring you all along for the ride.

The Eagles do a good version of this too.
I would argue that they Eagles did nothing good, but I will note that ‘Ol 55 is indeed Tom Wait’s most covered song. The Sarah McLachlan cover.
A great song! I’m not an Eagles hater by any stretch of the imagination but Tom’s original version is still the best.
