The Late John Garfield Blues (LP版) - John Prine[00:00:00]
Black faces pressed against the glass[00:00:00]
Where rain has pressed its weight[00:00:06]
Wind blown scarves in top down cars[00:00:12]
All share one western trait[00:00:17]
Sadness leaks through tear stained cheeks[00:00:23]
From winos to dime store Jews[00:00:28]
Probably don't know they give me[00:00:34]
These late john Garfield blues[00:00:39]
Midnight fell on Franklin street[00:00:49]
And the lamppost bulbs were broke[00:00:54]
For the life of me I could not see[00:00:59]
But I heard a brand new joke[00:01:05]
Two men were standing upon a bridge[00:01:10]
One jumped and screamed you lose[00:01:16]
And just left the odd man holding[00:01:22]
Those late john Garfield blues[00:01:27]
An old man sleeps with his conscience at night[00:01:36]
Young kids sleep with their dreams[00:01:42]
While the mentally ill sit perfectly still[00:01:47]
And live through life's in bet weens[00:01:52]
I'm going away to the last resort[00:02:00]
In week or two real soon[00:02:06]
Where the fish don't bite but once a night[00:02:12]
By the cold light of the moon[00:02:17]
The horses scream the nightmares dream[00:02:23]
And the dead men all wear shoes[00:02:28]
'Cause everybody's dancing[00:02:34]
Those late john Garfield blues[00:02:39]
