[Verse] There was a mountain on the table of bills that needed paid Dishes in the kitchen sink like dreams that never fade. A wild imagination convicts in the yard Never enough time to make ends meet So they put it on a credit card don’t we all? [Verse] You may not know just where you came from but once upon a time There was carpenter bartender broken fishing line. Just south of Royalty in the town that I came from There were architects and astronauts But the only one she loved was a prison guard. Uhm hm [Chorus] And that’s the only time I ever saw true love. [Chorus] America’s a girl I liked in Georgia London kept me warm up in Eugene. I guess my mother bless her heart Set the bar too high to start. ’Cause finding love for me is just too hard For a son of a prison guard. [Interlude] Emin 1x [Verse] There’s a gate that needed painting clothes that needed clean. They’d say there’s time enough for that when the fun has all been seen. ’Cause when we’re laying on our death bed a promise we won’t say Wish we would have worked more baby Instead of loving you that way no way. [Chorus] And that’s the only time I ever saw true love. [Verse] Sigourney is a girl I met in Brooklyn Paris got me close in New Orleans I guess my mother bless her heart Set the bar too high to start. ’Cause finding love for me is just too hard For a son of a prison guard. [Break] I go wherever you are whoever you are I go wherever you are whoever you are I go wherever you are whoever you are I go wherever you are. [Verse] Betty is a girl I knew in Charlotte Jordan left for Sydney yesterday. I guess my mother bless her heart Set the bar too high to start. ’Cause finding love for me is just too hard For a son of a prison guard.
