Lyrics:John Prine Music:John Prine | |
Why must you always seem to criticize me | |
Seems like everything I do just turns out wrong | |
Why don't you come on out and despise me | |
So I could pack my bag and baby I'd be gone | |
Remember when you used to call me honey | |
Well, I'd turn around and call you honey, too | |
You might think it's a joke, but it ain't funny | |
To hurt someone who's so in love with you | |
(Chorus) | |
A clown puts his make-up on upside down | |
So he wears a smile even when he wears a frown | |
You might think I'm here when you put me down | |
But actually I'm on the other side of town | |
My body's in this room with you just catching hell | |
But my soul is drinking beer down the road a spell | |
You might think I'm listening to you grocery list | |
But I'm leaning on a jukebox and I'm about half...way there | |
(Repeat Chorus) | |
{Instrumental} | |
I'm sitting on a chair just behind my ear | |
Playing dominoes and drinking some ice cold beer | |
When you get done talking I'll come back downstairs | |
And assume the body of the person you presume who cares | |
(Repeat Chorus) | |
I'm across the river on the other side of town | |
In my mind I'm going to the dog racing side of town. | |
{Ending} |

Seems like everything I do just turns out wrong | |
Why don' t you come on out and despise me | |
So I could pack my bag and baby I' d be gone | |
Remember when you used to call me honey | |
Well, I' d turn around and call you honey, too | |
You might think it' s a joke, but it ain' t funny | |
To hurt someone who' s so in love with you | |
Chorus | |
A clown puts his makeup on upside down | |
So he wears a smile even when he wears a frown | |
You might think I' m here when you put me down | |
But actually I' m on the other side of town | |
My body' s in this room with you just catching hell | |
But my soul is drinking beer down the road a spell | |
You might think I' m listening to you grocery list | |

When you get done talking I' ll come back downstairs | |
And assume the body of the person you presume who cares | |
Repeat Chorus | |
I' m across the river on the other side of town | |
In my mind I' m going to the dog racing side of town. | |
