John Prine - Down By The Side Of The Road songtekst

Je score:


Her Father was a failure

Her Mother was a comfort

To a doctor and lawyer and Indian Chief.

The shirt ran out of buttons

He lost all his marbles at a baseball game

And they went on Relief.

The bank took away their diplomas

They locked them up inside of the chest

And she moved away to Oklahoma

And got a tattoo on the side of her breast

"God-Damn, My socks are still hard"

From lying on the sofa on the night she was over in my backyard

Yeah, We was shooting the breeze out amongst the trees

When a shot rang low

And left her standing down by the side of the road

Down by the side of the road



Father have mercy, Whoo Whoo

Get her a nurse please

She's almost alone

I saw her hand reaching out for the telephone

We rather see her locked up inside a home

Than see her standing down by the side of the road

Down by the side of the road

Headlights flashing on her skirt in the wind.

Yonder comes a truck it drove by two men.

Shotgun man leaned out and said do you want to take a ride?

Out in the pale moonlight Light. light Light Lie Lie Lie lie



Too long in the hot sun

She could've be Miss Wisconsin a long time ago

Spent to much time inside of the early show

We'd bought her a ticket but she didn't want to go

She was standing down by the side of the road

Down by the side of the road



Headlights flashing, caught a skirt in the wind.

Yonder comes a truck it drove by two men.

Shotgun man leaned out and said do you want to take a ride?

Out in through the pale moonlight



Her Father was a failure

Her Mother was a comfort

To a doctor and lawyer and Indian Chief.

The shirt made out of buttons

He lost all his marbles at a baseball game

And they went on Relief.

The bank took away their diplomas

They locked them up inside of the chest

And she moved away to Oklahoma

And got a tattoo on the side of her breast



God-Damn, My thoughts are still hard.

From lying on the sofa on the night she was overi n my backyard



Yeah, We was shooting the breeze out amongst the trees

When a shot rang low

And left her standing down by the side of the road

Down by the side of the road

Down by the side of the road

Down by the side of the road
