John Prine - People Puttin' People Down lyrics
[John Prine - People Puttin' People Down lyrics]
Sometimes they wear a frown
And people who are kings
Sometimes they wear a crown
But all the people who don't fit
Get the only fun they get
From people puttin' people down
People puttin' people down
People without love sometimes build
A fence around
The garden up above that makes
The whole world go 'round
But all the people who don't fit
They get the only fun they get
From people puttin' people down
People puttin' people down so cold
Sometimes it gets so cold
You may lose your wife
You may lose your family
You may lose your mind just
To keep your sanity
But the people who don't fit get
The only fun they get
From people puttin' people down
People puttin' people down
People that are glad
Sometimes they wear a smile
And people without dreams
They walk the extra mile
All the people who don't fit will
Get the only fun they get
From people puttin' people down
People puttin' people down
People puttin' people down
People puttin' people down
So cold sometimes it gets so cold
