Johnny's Harp

Original Song by James Humphries

"Johnny's Harp"

And the Gower Gulch is Empty,
And the Drugstores have all closed,
And my boots have turned against me,
Like the stitching in my clothes.
I hear Johnny's harp play gently
But I can't recall who sent me,
Was it anger, was it envy,
Is there any way to know?
And I just can't help but thinkin'
There wasnt anyway to know.

And the prostitutes are homely,
Like a tree that hasn't grown,
And they always sit so lonely
With their cuban saxiphone,
Then they break their bread with Tony,
He's the muscle and the phony,
And he rides a common pony,
Like he's waiting for the throne
Anyhow I guess that we all
march to a different song.

And is there somethin' boy,
You're lookin for.
I gave you everything I had
and so much more,
But Johnny's Harp still loves you
Johnny's Harp forgives you,
Johnny's Harp could pick you off the floor,
Then maybe you wont hurt me anymore.

And I wish that it was snowing,
But I don't think that it will.
And I can't tell where I'm going
And I just got time to kill.
Well the sun aint fit for showing
And the moon aint good for glowing,
And the first thing that I'm knowing,
Is that nothing much is real.
But I hear Johnny's Harp a-blowing,
And its the only thing I feel.
