Best Of All Possible Worlds - Kris Kristofferson[00:00:01]

I was runnin' through the summer rain tryin' to catch the evenin' train[00:00:04]

And kill that old familiar pain weevin' through my tangled brain[00:00:09]

When I tipped my bottle back I smacked into a cop I didn't see[00:00:13]

That policeman said Mr Cool if you're ain't drunk then you're a fool[00:00:20]

I said if that's against the law tell me why I never saw[00:00:27]

A man locked in that jail of yours who wadn't just as lowdown poor as me[00:00:31]

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

And I wound up in jail to spend the night[00:00:41]

And dream of all the wine and lonely girls in this best of all possible worlds[00:00:47]

Well I woke up next morning feelin' like my head was gone[00:00:58]

And like my thick old tongue was lickin' somethin' sick and wrong[00:01:03]

And I told that man I'd sell my soul if somethin' wet and cold is that old cell[00:01:08]

That kindly jailer grinned at me all eaten up with sympathy[00:01:16]

Then bought himself another beer and came and whispered in my ear[00:01:21]

That booze was just a dime a bottle boy you couldn't even buy the smell[00:01:26]

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[00:01:37]

Cause there's still a lot of wine and lonely girls in this best of all possible worlds[00:01:41]

Well they finally came and told me they was a gonna set me free[00:01:50]

And I'd be leavin' town if I knew what was good for me[00:01:57]

I said it's nice to learn that everybody's so concerned about my health[00:02:01]

I said I won't be leavin' no more quicker than I can[00:02:11]

Cause I've enjoyed about this much of this as I can stand[00:02:15]

And I don't need this town of yours more than I've never needed nothing else[00:02:20]

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

Lots of pretty thoughts that I ain't thought oh yeah[00:02:31]

Lord there's still so many lonely girls in this best of all possible worlds[00:02:35]
