    Well, I pawned my Smith Corona
    And I went to meet my man
    He hangs out down on Alvarado Street
    By the Pioneer chicken stand

    in my daily shuffle ;)

    His eponymous album is probably my single favorite.
    Carmelita is a fine, fine song -- but I think my fave on that album (perhaps my favorite-est of all of his) is The French Inhaler. The article quotes it -- but I think it's worth quoting again :)
    When the lights came up at two
    I caught a glimpse of you
    And your face looked like
    Something death brought with him in his suitcase
    Your pretty face
    It looked so wasted
    Another pretty face,
    Devastated
