It's his way to let you know Tommie doesn't care what time of day it is Writes his name on a thousand walls Tommie doesn't care what time of year it is In fact he doesn't care for things at all Now he's runnin' down the road And everybody seems to know the way Not him a lonely little soul And then he cries in anger With tears from a storm So strong And then he cries It's his way to let you know Tommie doesn't show what he really feels Maybe he's too young to tell Tommie only knows one save place to go He goes to Waterfront Hotel Where the people seem to know What can happen in a young boys' life As the truth unfolds And then he cries in anger With tears from a storm A wounded little boy And then cries in anger Nothing ever good did come to me Except for Waterfront Hotel The only place to feel better Except for Waterfront Hotel Except for Waterfront Hotel The only place you feel better My God listen And then he cries in anger With tears from a storm No way I'll leave, no way And then he cries in anger It's his way to let you know It's his way to let you know
