作词 : Pat Monahan/Jerry Becker 作曲 : Pat Monahan/Jerry Becker There was a mountain on The table of bills that needed paid Dishes in the kitchen sink Like dreams that never fade A wild imagination of convicts in the yard Never enough time to make ends meet So they put it on a credit card, don't we all? You may not know just where you came from But once upon a time There was a carpenter A bartender, a broken fishing line Just south of Royal Teeth In the town that I came from There were architects and astronauts But the only one she loved was a prison guard And that's the only time I ever saw true love And Erica's a girl I liked in Georgia Long and kept me warm up in Eugene I guess my mother bless so hard Set the bar too high to the sky What's fine enough for me is just too hard A son of a prison guard There's a gate that needed painting Clothes that needed clean They'd say there's time enough for that When the fun has all been seen Cause when we're laying on our death bed A promise we won't say Wish we would have worked more, baby Instead of loving you that way, no way And that's the only time I ever saw true love Segourney is a girl I met in Brooklyn Herris got me close in New Orleans I guess my mother bless so hard Set the bar too high to the sky What's fine enough for me is just too hard A son of a prison guard I go wherever you are, whoever you are I go wherever you are, whoever you are I go wherever you are, whoever you are I go wherever you are Betty is a girl I knew in Charlotte Join and Left for Sydney yesterday I guess my mother bless so hard Set the bar too high to the sky What's fine enough for me is just too hard A son of a prison guard Whoever you are
