Best of All Possible Worlds - Kris Kristofferson[00:00:00]

Written by：Kris Kristofferson/Bergen White[00:00:01]

I was runnin' through the summer rain[00:00:04]

Tryin' to catch the evenin' train[00:00:07]

An' kill that old familiar pain[00:00:09]

Weavin' through my tangled brain[00:00:11]

But when I tipped my bottle back[00:00:13]

I smacked into a cop I didn't see[00:00:15]

That policeman said mister cool[00:00:22]

If you ain't drunk then you're a fool[00:00:24]

I said if that's against the law[00:00:27]

Then tell me why I never saw[00:00:29]

A man locked in that jail of yours[00:00:31]

Who wasn't just as low down poor as me[00:00:33]

Well that was when someone turned out the lights[00:00:38]

An' I wound up in jail to spend the night[00:00:42]

An' dream of all the wine an' lonely girls[00:00:47]

In this best of all possible worlds[00:00:51]

Well I woke up next mornin'[00:00:58]

Feelin' like my head was gone[00:01:00]

An' like my thick old tongue was lickin'[00:01:03]

Something sick an' wrong[00:01:05]

An' I told that man I'd sell my soul[00:01:07]

For somethin' wet an' cold as that old cell[00:01:10]

That kindly jailer grinned at me[00:01:16]

All eaten up with sympathy[00:01:19]

Then poured he self another beer[00:01:21]

An' came an' whispered in my ear[00:01:23]

If booze was just a dime a bottle boy[00:01:25]

You couldn't even buy the smell[00:01:28]

I said I knew there was somethin' I liked about this town[00:01:32]

But it takes more than that to bring me down down down[00:01:36]

'Cause there's still a lot of wine an' lonely girls[00:01:41]

In this best of all possible worlds[00:01:45]

Well they finally came an' told me[00:01:52]

They was a gonna set me free[00:01:54]

An' I'd be leavin' town[00:01:57]

If I knew what was good for me[00:01:58]

I said it's nice to learn[00:02:01]

That everybody's so concerned about my health[00:02:03]

I said I won't be leavin' no more[00:02:10]

Quicker than I can[00:02:13]

'Cause I've enjoyed about as much[00:02:15]

Of this as I can stand[00:02:17]

An' I don't need this town of yours[00:02:19]

More than I never needed nothin' else[00:02:22]

'Cause there's still a lot of drinks that I ain't drunk[00:02:26]

An' lots of pretty thoughts that I ain't thunk[00:02:30]

An' lord there's still so many lonely girls[00:02:35]

In this best of all possible worlds[00:02:39]
