GREAT SONG from the great album 'The Missing Years'(1992) by John Prine

(written by John Prine and John Mellencamp)

i was a bit surprised that this song wasn't on YouTube already, so i'm hoping to fill some gap here. John Prine is surely big enough to have Bruce Springsteen coming over for a backingvocal :)

*****************

LYRICS:

I seen my old lady's boy friend

He don't look nothing like me

'Cept for a bit of confusion

Same kind she laid on me

You don't know what you're getting into

She's gonna tear you apart

You're going places i've been to

Take a look at my heart

Take a look at my heart

You're probably sending her flowers

And talking to her on the phone

You're gonna get it together

And find yourself all alone

Do you think you can be her lover

And not become her fool

Do you think that you are

The exception to the rule

You're gonna hate all her girlfriends

And everything that they say

You ask me how do i know this

They come around every day

That's a classic Bruce S. lead similiar to what he played with Roy Orbison on Black n White

Mark Kopheler and Emmylou Harris sure have a good recording cache. CRTC d banned them from Canada, what a disgrace and hardship thrown onto a couple of touring musicians.
