Way Down - John Prine

Way down

Way down it must be

I can’t stop this misery

It must be way down

Spring is just a smile away

Laughing at a summer day

Turn around Look at fall

Winter, hear my lonely call

Way down…

The air is thin and the sky is fat

I’m gonna buy me a brand new hat

Wear it out and go insane

Christ, I hope it never rains

Way down…

Thought I saw a neon sign

Flash my name With the time

Probably didn’t see a thing

Crazy dreams and a broken wing

Way down…

How ya' gonna get sunshine

Peeking thru Venetian blinds

Don’t you know all that fear

Begins and ends the same place

Here

Way down…
