Illegal Smile

John Prine专辑

  • When I woke up this morning, things were lookin' bad

    Seem like total silence was the only friend I had

    Bowl of oatmeal tried to stare me down and won

    And it was twelve o'clock before I realized

    That I was havin', no fun

    Ah, but fortunately I have the key to escape reality

    And you may see me tonight with an illegal smile

    It don't cost very much, but it lasts a long while

    Won't you please tell the man I didn't kill anyone

    No I'm just tryin' to have me some fun

    Last time I checked my bankroll, it was gettin' thin

    Sometimes it seems like the bottom

    Is the only place I've been

    Chased a rainbow down a one-way street, dead end

    And all my friends turned out to be insurance salesmen

    Ah, but fortunately I have the key to escape reality

    And you may see me tonight with an illegal smile

    It don't cost very much, but it lasts a long while

    Won't you please tell the man I didn't kill anyone

    No I'm just tryin' to have me some fun

    Well, I sat down in my closet with all my overalls

    Tryin' to get away from all the ears inside my walls

    I dreamed the police heard

    Everything I thought, what then?

    Well I went to court and the judge's name was Hoffman

    Ah, but fortunately I have the key to escape reality

    And you may see me tonight with an illegal smile

    It don't cost very much, but it lasts a long while

    Won't you please tell the man I didn't kill anyone

    No I'm just tryin' to have me some fun

    Well done, hot dog bun, my sister's a nun
