about

Our loving ode to the late, great John Prine.

lyrics

OPTIMIST PRINE
--------------------

Well the mailman writes his tunes
Have us howling at the moon
Songs of growing old of love and then loving life

And all the cool cats they sing along
With the angel in his song
We got no worries now everything's all right

Sing your song
We'll sing along
Pour yourself a drink at that heavenly farm you bought
And as you sit with your mom and dad
Talkin' bout the funny words he had

You made us proud
You let us grieve
You bring us as laughter as you leave

Sing your song
We'll sing along
Pour yourself a drink at that heavenly farm you bought
And as you sit with your dad and cuss
Pickin' out a tune for all of us...
Rest assured them Peabody boys are still in a fuss
Yeah you know them Peabody boys are still in a fuss
