Tom Waits, "Hold On"
Down by the Riverside motelIt's ten below and fallingBy a ninety-nine cent storeShe closed her eyes and started swayingBut it's so hard to dance that wayWhen it's cold and there's no musicOh, your old hometown's so far awayBut inside your head there's a record that's playingA song called "Hold On"
