Maureen Maureen Lyrics by John Prine

Maureen Maureen Lyrics

    Maureen, maureen,
    I shot a doctor last night on the airplane
    Well, they said he wouldn't hurt us
    But he got me real nervous and mean
    He was fat and he stank
    And god knows that he drank more than we do
    So i shot him in the first class
    Then i bailed out and ran home to you

    Chorus:
    But you don't believe me
    I could tell by your smile
    Honey, why don't you leave me
    Get lost for awhile, maureen.

    Maureen, maureen,
    There's a hole in between where we come from
    And the things that i'm thinking
    Ain't necessary the things that i say
    I may have lied to myself
    But i tried to tell god how i love you
    But even he don't answer
    His phone anymore when i pray

    Maureen, maureen,
    I shot a doctor last night on the airplane
    Well, they said he wouldn't hurt us
    But he got me real nervous and mean
    Real nervous and mean
