(John Prine)

|
You come home late
|
And you come home early
|
You come on big
|
When you're feeling small
|
And you come home curly
|
Sometimes you don't come home at all
|
|
So what in the world's come over you
|
What in heaven's name have you done
|
You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
|
You're out their runnin'
|
Just to be on the run
|
|
Well I got a heart that burns with a fever
|
And I got a worried and jealous mind
|
Well how can a love
|
That will last forever
|
Get left so far behind
|
|
So what in the world's come over you
|
What in heaven's name have you done
|
You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
|
You're out their runnin'
|
Just to be on the run
|
|
It's a mighty mean and dreadful sorrow
|
That crossed the evil line today
|
How can you ask about tomorrow
|
When we ain't go one word to say
|
|
So what in the world's come over you
|
What in heaven's name have you done
|
You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
|
You're out their runnin'
|
Just to be on the run
|
|
You're out their runnin'
|
Just to be on the run
|
You're out their runnin'
|
Just to be on the run
|
