In my younger years, my buddy and I would put on “The Heart of Saturday Night, go out bar hopping, shooting pool, and so on until closing time. Then we would put on the “Ghosts of Saturday Night’, and head over to the Pantry, the Atomic Café, Gorky’s Café, or some other after hours joint for breakfast at 2:30 AM.

Tom would sometimes appear on 4th St. LB at a bar that was frequented by Bukowski and the two of them would have a drink together. If you were lucky, and you were down at the end of the bar in the shadows, you could hear faint echos of songs to come. This was one of them. It will be there, long after Tom, the bar, & I, have gone. Enjoy.

Many years ago I danced with a beautiful young British lass in a cafe in a small Mexican beach town while this song wafted through the air. One of the most beautiful moments of my life. Today I am 53 years old, a broken down man in a dead end life. Reduced to constant worry and buried in debt, I hear this song again and am washed over by the sad beauty of it all. What happened to that young man so full of life? Was it really me?

Carol, lovely story. I DID see Tom Waits in a very small venue, I think it was a conference room of a Holiday Inn, seriously. He is very funny and quite sad, wish I could have known him as a friend. Not because of his fame but for his soul. It was the 70's, a time of many great songs and writers. Believe it or not, Leon Red Bone was the headliner lol. What a great time just listening.

I hope I’m not insulting you by suggesting Nighthawks At The Diner. If you like this the records full of this banter. Full of great piano songs too. I’m guessing you know this but in case you don’t or maybe someone may read this and go there. Either way it’s a fantastic record that needs to be discovered. Nuff said.

I never knew his sense of humour so such a big part of his music and his act. I liked him before, I now like him a little bit more. If I keep learning, one day I'll love him.

Tom Waits was singing the Heart of Saturday Night, she held the remote control in her hand, bumped up the volume, danced in her glory and sang along with Tom, makes it kind of quiver down in the core 'cause you're dreamin' of them Saturdays that came before and now you're stumblin' you're stumblin' onto the heart of Saturday night...

Live acoustic with no digital enhancements. Peace out and stay safe.

She swayed her hips slow and sweet... this was her virginal toast to life. She tumbled all the way down into a well filled with midnight magnolias and again sang along with Tom…

Amazing lyricist… Well you gassed her up Behind the wheel With your arm around your sweet one In your Oldsmobile Barrelin' down the boulevard You're looking for the heart of Saturday night And you got paid on Friday And your pockets are jinglin' And you see the lights You get all tinglin' cause you're cruisin' with a six And you're looking for the heart of Saturday night Then you comb your hair Shave your face Tryin' to wipe out ev'ry trace All the other days In the week you know that this'll be the Saturday You're reachin' your peak Stoppin' on the red You're goin' on the green 'Cause tonight'll be like nothin' You've ever seen And you're barrelin' down the boulevard Lookin' for the heart of Saturday night Tell me is the crack of the pool balls, neon buzzin'? Telephone's ringin', it's your second cousin Is it the barmaid that's smilin' from the corner of her eye? Magic of the melancholy tear in your eye Makes it kind of quiver down in the core 'Cause you're dreamin' of them Saturdays that came before And now you're stumblin' You're stumblin' onto the heart of Saturday night Well you gassed her up And you're behind the wheel With your arm around your sweet one In your Oldsmobile Barrellin' down the boulevard You're lookin' for the heart of Saturday night Is this the crack of the pool balls, neon buzzin'? Telephone's ringin', it's your second cousin And the barmaid is smilin' from the corner of her eye Magic of the melancholy tear in your eye Makes it kind of special down in the core And you're dreamin' of them Saturdays that came before It's found you stumblin' Stumblin' onto the heart of Saturday night And you're stumblin' Stumblin' onto the heart of Saturday night Mhm, mhm
