Foreign Affair (Tom Waits cover) by "Daddy C"

My faithful cover of Tom Waits' 1977 classic, "Foreign Affair". Putting on my best Waits impression, I tried to remain as true to the original as possible. Never attempted to make it my own. One of my favourite Waits tunes with some of the finest lyrics ever written. Hope you enjoy it!
Hey Waits...if you're watching, what say we meet up this summer in Coney Island for some brews & clams and, of course, a hot dog at Nathan's. I'll meet you on the corner of Surf & 10th - in front of The Cyclone.
