    I'm glad I got sober, before discovering Tom Waits. I probably would've downloaded EVERY album he made, bought a case of whisky, put the music on shuffle, & proceeded to drink myself to death. Having said THAT, I'm glad that in sobriety, I can enjoy his music with a CLEAR head, and appreciate what a unique talent he is. I'm approaching 49 years on this planet, & he's my new hero.

      Bone Machine is one of the last albums I can remember playing from beginning to end, in order, every time It's perfect in every way and Going Out West' is one of the best songs in history.

    My goal as an artist is to paint as good , as excellent as Tom Waits can sing, write songs, perform, and …well make music. He is F R E A K I N' AWESOME-Sauce!! Super talented, so soulful, so intensely into what he's doing it consumes his every molecule, yet he still can dance away & take a funny satirical and humble look at what he is & smirk, smile, laugh. Then step back in and sing his heart out till he make you cry. I love this guy.

    They got some money out there
    They're giving it away

    I got hair on my chest
    I look good without a shirt
    Well I don't lose my composure
    In a high speed chase
    Well my friends think I'm ugly
    I got a masculine face
    I got some dragstrip courage
    I can really drive a bed
    I'm gonna change my name
    To Hannibal or maybe
    Just Rex
    Change my name to Hannibal
    Or maybe just Rex
    I'm gonna drive all night
    Take some speed
    I'm gonna wait for the sun
    To shine down on me
    I cut a hole in my roof
    In the shape of a heart
    And I'm goin' out west

    That afternoon I had already scored some speed and later on on my first playing of the tracks on my trucks stereo system I replayed this song since it was appropriate for the moment .
    The plan was to drive all night, but I already had some tweak so i made a slight change to the lyrics.
