Town with No Cheer Lyrics

Cover art for Town with No Cheer lyrics by Tom Waits

Yeah Tom came out to Victoria/Autralia a few years before this song was written. He was on the Don Lane show and got made fun of by the Host, Don who really couldn't comprehend Tom's Schtik at the time - years later he became a massive Tom Fan.

Anyways I've always liked to think that Tom must have taken the Overlander train to Adelaide and got told the story of Servicetown by the bartender on the train - or maybe they stopped at serviceton in those days and the pub was shut:)
