John Prine — Maureen Maureen

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 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 necessarily 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 And you don't believe me I could tell by your smile Honey, why don't you leave me? Just get lost for awhile, Maureen 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 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
