Tom Waits - Franks Wild Years flac album

Franks Wild Years is the ninth studio album by Tom Waits, released 1987 on Island Records. Subtitled "Un Operachi Romantico in Two Acts", the album contains songs written by Waits and collaborators (mainly his wife, Kathleen Brennan) for a play of the same name.

Tom Waits wrote a song called "Frank's Wild Years" for his 1983 Swordfishtrombones album, then used the title (minus its apostrophe) for a musical play he wrote with his wife, Kathleen Brennan, and toured with in 1986. The Franks Wild Years album, drawn from the show, is subtitled, "un operachi romantico in two acts," though the songs themselves do not carry the plot.

Lyrics "Tom Waits - Frank's Wild Years". Hang on St. Christopher through the smoke and the oil Buckle down the rumble seat let the radiator boil got an overhead downshift and a two dollar grill got an 85 cabin on an 85 hill hang on St. Christopher on the passenger side open it up tonight the devil can ride hang on St. Christopher with a barrel house dog kick me. up mt. baldy throw me out in the fog tear a hole in the jack pot drive a stake through his heart do a 100 on the grapevine do a jump on the start hang on St. Christopher now don't let me go get me to Reno and bring.

Hang on St. Christopher. Straight to the Top (Rhumba). Innocent When You Dream (Barroom). Frank's Theme. Way Down in the Hole. Straight to the Top (Vegas). Telephone Call from Istanbul. Innocent When You Dream (78).
