Middle Man(LP版)

Middle Man (中间人) (LP版) - John Prine[00:00:00]

I was sitting in a diner[00:00:10]

With a girl named Flo[00:00:12]

She wouldn't say yes[00:00:13]

But she couldn't say no[00:00:15]

She said darling can I get a middle man[00:00:16]

She was engaged to a fellow[00:00:21]

On the lay a way plan[00:00:23]

Carried all her money[00:00:24]

In a coffee can[00:00:25]

She said darling can I get a middle man[00:00:26]

The cook looked over[00:00:32]

With a short order face[00:00:33]

Dropped a fork[00:00:35]

And he saw Flo's legs[00:00:36]

Straightened his apron[00:00:38]

And burnt my eggs[00:00:39]

I got competition[00:00:40]

Everywhere I go[00:00:41]

These days[00:00:42]

She was leaning on the jukebox[00:00:45]

And was looking real good[00:00:47]

Like Natalie wood[00:00:48]

On a Pontiac hood[00:00:49]

I said darling I think I need a little hand[00:00:51]

Ya see I've seen my downs[00:00:56]

I've seen my ups[00:00:58]

I seen miniature dogs[00:00:59]

In coffee cups[00:01:00]

But darling I ain't never seen a middle man[00:01:01]

Flo talked slow[00:01:07]

Like real wet paint[00:01:08]

She said a middle man's there[00:01:09]

When the other ones ain't[00:01:11]

He's got a left handed manner[00:01:12]

That leans to the right sleeps all day[00:01:13]

And keeps it up all night[00:01:16]

I got an aunt in Ohio[00:01:20]

And a boat that won't row[00:01:21]

Some veterans insurance[00:01:23]

And nowhere to go[00:01:24]

Darling can I be your middle man[00:01:26]

If I could get the money in that coffee can[00:01:31]

I could open me up a lemonade stand[00:01:33]

Send all the kids off to Pakistan[00:01:37]

Make Flo happy[00:01:39]

If I can[00:01:41]

Jerry ma honey and Johnny B good[00:01:55]

Are gonna buy me a house in Hollywood[00:01:57]

Darling I think I got the perfect plan[00:02:01]

We're gonna save half a dollars[00:02:06]

And sell 'em to France[00:02:07]

Buy us a record[00:02:08]

And learn how to dance[00:02:10]

And darling I'll always be your middle[00:02:11]

Darling go buy a griddle[00:02:14]

Darling I wanna be your middle man[00:02:17]
