Crooked Piece Of Time Lyrics - Bruised Orange - John Prine

Things got rough 

things got tough 

things got harder than hard 

We were just trying to make a livin' 

in our back yard 

We were born too late died to soon 

anxiety's a terrible crime 

if you don't come now don't come at all 

'cause it's a crooked piece of time. 

It's a crooked piece of time that we live in 

a crooked piece of time 

all in all and all in all 

It's a crooked piece of time.

Yesterday morning an ill wind came 

blew your picture 

right out of the picture frame 

even blew the candle out 

from underneath the flame 

Yesterday morning an ill wind came.
