Letras

[Verse 1]
I was runnin' through the summer rain
Tryin' to catch the evenin' train
And kill that old familiar pain
Weavin' through my tangled brain
But when I tipped my bottle back
I smacked into a cop I didn't see
[Verse 2]
That police man said, "Mister Cool
If you ain't drunk, then you're a fool"
I said, "If that's against the law
Tell me why I never saw
A man locked in that jail of yours
Who wasn't just as low-down poor as me"
[Verse 3]
Well, that was when someone turn out the lights
And I wound up in jail to spend the night
And dream of all the wine and lonely girls
In this best of all possible worlds
[Verse 4]
Well, I woke up next mornin'
Feelin' like my head was gone
And like my thick old tongue
Was lickin' somethin' sick and wrong
And I told that man I'd sell my soul
For somethin' wet and cold as that old cell
[Verse 5]
That kindly jailer grinned at me
All eaten up with sympathy
Then poured hisself another beer
And came and whispered in my ear
"If booze was just a dime a bottle
Boy, you couldn't even buy the smell"
[Verse 6]
I said, "I knew there was somethin' I liked about this town
But it takes more than that to bring me down, down, down
'Cause there's still a lot of wine and lonely girls
In this best of all possible worlds"
[Verse 7]
Well, they finally came and told me they was a-gonna set me free
And I'd be leavin' town if I knew what was good for me
I said, "It's nice to learn that everybody's so concerned
About my health"
[Verse 8]
I said, "I won't be leavin' no more quicker than I can
'Cause I've enjoyed about as much of this as I can stand
And I don't need this town of yours
More than I never needed nothin' else
[Verse 9]
'Cause there's still a lot of drinks that I ain't drunk
And lots of pretty thoughts that i ain't thunk, oh yeah
Lord, there's still so many lonely girls
In this best of all possible worlds"
