paroles de chanson Everybody - John Prine

While out sailing on the ocean
While out sailing on the sea
Bumped into the Saviour
He said, "Pardon me"
I said, "Jesus you look tired"
He said, "Jesus so do you
Oh, sit down son
′Cause I got some fat to chew"

You see, everybody needs somebody
That they can talk to
Someone to open up their ears
And let that trouble through
Now you don't have to sympathize
Or care what they may do
But everybody needs somebody that they can talk to

Well, he spoke to me of morality
Starvation, pain, and sin
Matter of fact, the whole dang time
I only got few words in
But I won′t squawk
Let 'im talk
Hell, it's been a long long time
Any friend that′s been turned down
Is bound to be a friend of mine

′Cause everybody needs somebody
That they can talk to
Someone to open up their ears
And let that trouble through
Now you don't have to sympathize
Or care what they may do
But everybody needs somebody that they can talk to
Pick it

Now we sat there for an hour or two
Just a-eatin′ that Gospel pie
When around the bend come a terrible wind
And lightning lit the sky
He said, "So long son, I gotta run
I appreciate you listening to me"
And I believe I heard him sing these words
As he skipped out across the sea

"Everybody needs somebody
That they can talk to
Someone to open up their ears
And let that trouble through
Now you don't have to sympathize
Or care what they may do
But everybody needs somebody that they can talk to

Everybody needs somebody that they can talk to"
