• Best Of All Possible Worlds

I was running through the summer rain waiting for the evening train
To kill that old familiar pain weaving through my tangled brain
When I tipped my bottle back, smacked into a cop I didn't see

That police man said, Mister Cool
If you ain't drunk, then you're a fool
I said, if that's against the law
Tell me why I never saw
No man locked in this jail of yours
Who wasn't just low down poor as me

And that's when someone turned out the lights
Yes, and I wound up in jail to spend the night
And I dreamed of all the wine and lonely girls
In this best of all possible worlds

Next mornin' woke up feelin' like my head was really gone
And like my thick old tongue was licking something sick and wrong
I said, I'd sell my soul for something about as wet and cold as this old cell

That kindly jailer looked at me all eaten up with sympathy
Then poured himself another beer, came and whispered in my ear
Booze was just a dime a bottle
Boy, you couldn't even buy the smell

I said, I knew there's something I liked about this town
Oh, but it'll take more than that to bring me down
Cause there's still a lot of wine and lonely girls
In this best of all possible worlds

Well, they finally came and told me they was gonna set me free
And I'd be leaving town if I knew what was good for me
I said, it's nice to learn that everybody's so concerned about my health

But I won't be leaving no more quicker than I can
And I've enjoyed about as much of this as I can stand
And I don't need this town of yours
No more than I ever needed nothing else

Cause there's still alot of drinks that I ain't drunk
Yes, and lots of pretty thoughts that I ain't thunk
Oh, yeah
There's still a lot of wine and lonely girls
In this best of all possible worlds
In this best of all possible worlds
In this best of all possible worlds
