Chris Smither - So Long, Harry Truman lyrics
I can't stand to read the papers It seems like all the news is bad And an empty anger keeps me From being truly sad These are strange times we live in Hard games we play So wager very carefully Boy, play 'em as the lay Chorus Don't play no cards ain't in your hand Don't play no cards ain't in your hand Boy, so long Harry Truman goddamn its hard to find an honest man Yea, so long, Harry Truman, goddamn its hard to find an honest man Never sure of waking Never sure of sleep A prisoner bound by promises He knew he could not keep And someone said 'let's hang him For he's a fool' But tell me just how was it That he came to rule? Chorus Never trust an enemy Never cheat a friend Just doing what you think is right Usually works out in the end The president thought of Truman When he knew the end was near You can pass it on for quite a while But its true the buck stops here Chorus |
