Song | It's a Big Old Goofy World |
Artist | John Prine |
Album | The Missing Years |
作词 : Prine | |
Up in the morning | |
Work like a dog | |
Is better than sitting | |
Like a bump on a log | |
Mind all your manners | |
Be quiet as a mouse | |
Some day you'll own a home | |
That's as big as a house | |
I know a fella | |
He eats like a horse | |
Knocks his old balls | |
Round the old golf course | |
You oughta see his wife | |
She's a cute little dish | |
She smokes like a chimney | |
And drinks like a fish | |
There's a big old goofy man | |
Dancing with a big old goofy girl | |
Ooh baby | |
It's a big old goofy world | |
Now elvis had a woman | |
With a head like a rock | |
I wished i had a woman | |
That made my knees knock | |
She'd sing like an angel | |
And eat like a bird | |
And if i wrote a song | |
She'd know ever single word | |
Kiss a little baby | |
Give the world a smile | |
If you take an inch | |
Give 'em back a mile | |
Cause if you lie like a rug | |
And you don't give a damn | |
You're never gonna be | |
As happy as a clam | |
So i'm sitting in a hotel | |
Trying to write a song | |
My head is just as empty | |
As the day is long | |
Why it's clear as a bell | |
I should have gone to school | |
I'd be wise as an owl | |
Stead of stubborn as a mule. |
