Todd Snider - Handsome John şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Todd Snider

albüm: First Agnostic Church of Hope and Wonder


I didn't know him as well as I tell everyone I did
Hell he was nearly 50 and I was only a kid
But even way back in those missin' years
When he was still just catchin' on
There was nobody better than handsome John
Oh boy, look no further for your real McCoy
Here comes the singin' mailman
From Maywood, Illinois, oh boy
The next time I saw him, he walked off to paradise
In a way that I would say that I still take for advice
For with a plain spoken word and a simple melody
You can see this world with dignity
Oh boy, look no further for your real McCoy
Here comes the singin' mailman
From Maywood, Illinois, oh boy
♪
The last time I saw him, he danced off to Lake Marie
I realized I was cryin' out in tears of victory
For with a few still missin' and a new one comin' on
There was still nobody better than handsome John
Oh boy, look no further for your real McCoy

Here comes the singin' mailman
From Maywood, Illinois, oh boy
Oh boy
