John Prine. A great lyricist. Who can resist gems like:In a dusty pew in a vestibule
Sits the Devil playing pocket pool
He's waiting for the next poor fool
Who forgot that it was Sunday
Or
he thinks all my jokes are corny
Convict movies make her horny
She likes ketchup on her scrambled eggs
Swears like a sailor when shaves her legs
She takes a lickin'
And keeps on tickin'
I'm never gonna let her go.
Of course, he played neither of these songs, but he sang for two hours and played lots of our favorites like, Lake Marie, Blow up your TV and Long Monday.
