Take The Star Out Of The Window (LP版) - John Prine[00:00:00]
Robert was a sailor[00:00:20]
For the best years of his life[00:00:22]
His captain was his mother[00:00:25]
And the ocean was his wife[00:00:27]
Only fresh out of the cradle[00:00:30]
Life's one and only spring[00:00:32]
He was sworn to do his duty[00:00:35]
Got blood on his high school ring[00:00:37]
It's hello california[00:00:40]
Hello dad and mom[00:00:42]
Ship a hoy[00:00:45]
Your baby boy[00:00:46]
Is home from vietnam[00:00:47]
Don't you ask me any questions[00:00:49]
'Bout the medals on my chest[00:00:52]
Take the star out of the window[00:00:54]
Let my conscience take a rest[00:00:57]
Now he sailed across the ocean[00:01:23]
To the old far eastern war[00:01:25]
And it was foreign to his body[00:01:27]
It was foreign to his shore[00:01:30]
So he traded in the present[00:01:32]
For the better times he'd seen[00:01:35]
Made an oriental waitress[00:01:37]
His own home comin' queen[00:01:40]
It's hello california[00:01:42]
Hello dad and mom[00:01:45]
Ship a hoy[00:01:47]
Your baby boy[00:01:48]
Is home from vietnam[00:01:50]
Don't you ask me any questions[00:01:52]
'Bout the medals on my chest[00:01:54]
Take the star out of the window[00:01:57]
Let my conscience take a rest[00:02:00]
