Lyrics Ain't Hurtin' Nobody - John Prine

Ain't Hurtin' Nobody

Im a walkin down the street like lucky larue\nGot my hand in my pocket Im thinkin bout you\nI aint hurtin nobody\nI aint hurtin no one\nTheres three hundred men in the state of tennessee\nTheyre waiting to die, they wont never be free\nI aint hurtin nobody\nI aint hurtin no one\nSix million seven hundred thousand and thirty-three lights on You think someone could take the time to sit down\nAnd listen to the words of my song\nAt the beach in indiana I was nine years old\nHeard little richard singing «tutti frutti»\nFrom the top of a telephone pole\nI wasnt hurtin nobody\nI wasnt hurtin no one\nTheres roosters laying chickens and chickens layin eggs\nFarm machinery eating peoples arms and legs\nI wasnt hurtin nobody\nI wasnt hurtin no one\nPerfectly crafted popular hit songs never use the wrong rhyme\nYoud think that waitress could get my order\nRight the first time\nShes sitting on the back steps just shucking that corn\nThat gals been grinning since the day she was born\nShe aint hurtin nobody\nShe aint hurtin no one\nI used to live in chicago where the cold wind blows\nI delivered more junk mail than the junkyard would hold\nI wasnt hurtin nobody\nI wasnt hurtin no one\nYou can fool some of the people part of the time\nIn a rock and roll song\nFifty million elvis presley fans\nCant be all wrong
