John Prine - Middle Man Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • I was sitting in a diner
  • With a girl named flo
  • She wouldnt say yes
  • But she couldnt say no
  • She said darling, can I get a middle man?
  • She was engaged to a fellow
  • On the lay a way plan
  • But she carried all her money
  • In a coffee can
  • She said darling, can I get a middle man?
  • The cook looked over
  • With a short order face
  • Dropped a fork
  • And he saw flos legs
  • Straightened his apron
  • And burnt my eggs
  • I got competition
  • Everywhere I go
  • These days
  • She was leaning on the juke box
  • And was lookin real good
  • Like natalie wood
  • On a pontiac hood
  • I said darling, I think I need a little hand
  • Ya see, Ive seen my downs
  • Ive seen my ups
  • I seen miniature dogs
  • In coffee cups
  • But darling I aint never seen a middle man
  • Flo talked slow
  • Like real wet paint
  • She said
  • A middle mans there
  • When the other ones aint
  • Hes got a left handed manner
  • That leans to the right
  • Sleeps all day
  • And keeps it up all night ...
  • ... I got an aunt in ohio
  • And a boat that wont row
  • Some veterans insurance
  • And nowhere to go
  • Darling, can I be your middle man?
  • (spoken)
  • If I could get the money in that coffee can
  • I could open me up a lemonade stand
  • Send all the kids off to pakistan
  • Make flo happy
  • If I can
  • Jerry mahoney and johnny b. goode
  • Are gonna buy me a house in hollywood
  • Darling I think I got the perfect plan
  • Were gonna save half a dollars
  • And sell em to france
  • Buy us a record
  • And learn how to dance
  • And darling Ill always be your middle
  • Darling go buy a griddle
  • Darling I wanna be your middle man
