He Was In Heaven Before He Died (LP版) - John Prine[00:00:00]

There's a rainbow of babies[00:00:04]

Draped over the graveyard[00:00:06]

Where all the dead sailors[00:00:09]

Wait for their brides[00:00:12]

And the cold bitter snow[00:00:15]

Has strangled each grass blade[00:00:17]

Where the salt from their tears[00:00:20]

Washed out with the tide[00:00:22]

And I smiled on the Wabash[00:00:24]

The last time I passed it[00:00:26]

Yes I gave her a wink[00:00:28]

From the passenger side[00:00:30]

And my foot fell asleep[00:00:34]

As I swallowed my candy[00:00:36]

Knowing he was in heaven[00:00:38]

Before he died[00:00:40]

Now a harbor's on fire[00:00:45]

With the dreams and desires[00:00:47]

Of a thousand young poets[00:00:50]

Who failed 'cause they tried[00:00:52]

For a rhyme without reason[00:00:56]

Floats down to the bottom[00:00:58]

Where the scavengers eat 'em[00:01:01]

And wash in with the tide[00:01:03]

And I smiled on the Wabash[00:01:05]

The last time I passed it[00:01:08]

Yes I gave her a wink[00:01:09]

From the passenger side[00:01:11]

And my foot fell asleep[00:01:15]

As I swallowed my candy[00:01:17]

Knowing he was in heaven[00:01:19]

Before he died[00:01:21]

The sun can play tricks[00:01:26]

With your eyes on the highway[00:01:28]

The moon can lay sideways[00:01:32]

Till the ocean stands still[00:01:34]

But a person can't tell[00:01:37]

His best friend he loves him[00:01:39]

Till time has stopped breathing[00:01:42]

You're alone on the hill[00:01:44]

And I smiled on the Wabash[00:01:46]

The last time I passed it[00:01:49]

Yes I gave her a wink[00:01:51]

From the passenger side[00:01:53]

And my foot fell asleep[00:01:56]

As I swallowed my candy[00:01:58]

Knowing he was in heaven[00:02:00]

Before he died[00:02:02]
