The bluesy holiday standard that rivals "The Gift of the Magi" for sketching a fast Christmas masterpiece out of a handful of perfect, aching details.
Charlie, I think about you
Every time I pass the filling station
On account of all the grease
You used to wear in your hair.
Still have that record --
Little Anthony and The Imperials.
Someone stole my record player
How do you like that?
Thanks Drifty... Tom Waits was my first concert, saw him in D.C. and it was sublime. When he played Step Right Up...changed my life. That would be a pretty cool Christmas song too.
