Big Black Mariah
 作词 : Waits

 Well cutting through the cane break, rattling the sill
 Thunder that the rain makes when the shadow tops the hill
 Big light on the back street, hill to ever more
 Packing down the ladder with the hammer to the floor
 Here come the Big Black Mariah, here come the Big Black Mariah
 Here come the Big Black Mariah, I seen the big black Ford

 Well he's all boxed up on a red belle dame
 Hunted Black Johnny with a blind man's cane
 A yellow bullet with a rag out in the wind
 An old blind tiger, got an old bell Jim
 Here come the Big Black Mariah, here come the Big Black Mariah
 Here come the Big Black Mariah, here come the big black Ford

 Sent to the skies on a Benny Jag Blue
 Off to bed without his supper like a Linda brides do
 He got to do the story with the old widow Jones
 Got a wooden coat, this boy is never coming home
 Here come the Big Black Mariah, here come the Big Black Mariah
 Here come the Big Black Mariah, I seen that big black Ford
 Cut through the canebrake, oh yeah

 Well he's all boxed up on a red belle dame
 Flat Blue Johnny with a blind man's cane
 A hundred yellow bullets shook a rag out in the wind
 An old blind tiger, on a bell you win
 Here come the Big Black Mariah, here come the Big Black Mariah
 Here come the Big Black Mariah, here come the big black Ford
