Stick a Needle in My Eye — текст песни (John Prine)

Im awfully tired of the same old business

Kiss the babies, make em cry

Im only lookin for one good woman

Cross my heart and hope to die

Stick a needle in my eye, eye, eye



Got a load of mashed potatoes

Holdin gravy like a fishin hole

I know something that might sound funny

I got no money and my buddys broke

I got no money and my buddys broke



Counterculture, mother vulture

Post toasties and a quart of beer

Im only looking for a place to go to

Somebody ask me what Im doin here?

Somebody ask me what Im doin here?



A boneless breast and a crispy thigh

Sittin at the bar n giving me the eye

Black crows on a garbage can

What kind of fella do you think I am?

Stick a needle in my eye, eye, eye



Im fallin in with bad companions

My mind is weak and my throat is dry

Thanksgiving in the grand canyon

Cant keep my fingers off that country pie



Im awfully tired of the same old business

Kiss the babies, make em cry

Im only lookin for one good woman

Cross my heart and hope to die

Stick a needle in my eye, eye, eye

Stick a needle in my eye, eye, eye
