Testo Illegal Smile (Remastered) - John Prine
Testo della canzone Illegal Smile (Remastered) (John Prine), tratta dall'album Far From Me (Live in Asheville, North Carolina - Oct. 1986) [Remastered]
When I woke up this morning
Things were looking bad
Seemed like total silence
Was the only friend I had
A bowl of oatmeal tried to stare me down
And won
And it was twelve o'clock before I realized
I was having 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'll last a long while
Won't you please tell the man
I didn't kill anyone
No, I'm just trying to have me some fun
Well, last time I checked my bankroll
It was getting thin
Sometimes it seems like the bottom
Is the only place I've been
I chased a rainbow down a one-way street
Dead end
And all my friends turned out to be insurance
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'll last a long while
Won't you please tell the man
I didn't kill anyone
No, I'm just trying to have me some fun
Well, I sat down in my closet
With all my overalls
Trying 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
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'll last a long while
Won't you please tell the man
I didn't kill anyone
No, I'm just trying to have me some fun
