    'Cos everybody's got to have somebody to look down on.

    Who they can feel better than at anytime they please.

    Someone doin' somethin' dirty, decent folks can frown on.

    If you can't find nobody else, then help yourself to me.

    Help yourself, brother.

    Help yourself, Gentlemen.

    Help yourself Reverend.

    Pure magic and with one of the best Dobro solos you're ever likely to hear.

    Kris Kristofferson already a star, discovered John Prine and got him signed in early 1970. Kris then released this song in 1972, before John released his ""Grandpa Was a Carpenter" in 1973. So it's not likely he borrowed John's melody, as this song sounds a whole lot like every other song Kris wrote before and after that, LOL. For a real treat, go listen to Darrell Scott's version of this from last year's Rhythm & Roots Fest in Bristol, VA/TN - it's awesome!

    No, it's "owed to John Prine" because it closely resembles the latter's "Grandpa was a Carpenter".
