| OK, here's the thing.
Why is Tom Waits so replete with this pseudo-Moby D*ck blues?
Did he have a crappy childhood?

| - Quote :
- Thomas Alan Waits was born on December 7, 1949, in Valparaiso, Indiana.
He has one older sister and one younger sister.
His father, Jesse Frank Waits, was a Texas native of Scots-Irish descent, while his mother, Alma Fern (née Johnson), hailed from Oregon and had Norwegian ancestry.
Alma was a conventional housewife and regular church-goer.
Jesse taught Spanish at a local school and was an alcoholic; Waits later related that his father was "a tough one, always an outsider".
The family lived at 318 North Pickering Avenue in Whittier, California.
He described having a "very middle-class" upbringing and "a pretty normal childhood"
He attended Jordan Elementary School, where he was bullied.
There, he learned to play the bugle and guitar, while his father taught him to play the ukulele.
During the summers, he visited maternal relatives in Gridley and Marysville.
He later recalled that it was an uncle's raspy, gravelly voice that inspired the manner in which he later sang. Wow, and I thought I had it hard.
