paroles de chanson Foolish Questions - Johnny Cash

Well now you've all been asked foolish questions and I think that you all know
That you're bound to run into them most, most anywhere you go
And you all know the story of the man you meet on the way
You say to him, hey how's Trix and you'll listen to him while he say
Say he's just been to the funeral of poor old uncle Ned
And the next question he's gonna ask is, is Ned dead?
Foolish questions, you might as well reply
No Ned thought he'd have a funeral and later on some time he die
You know he is so original that he wanted it that way
Foolish questions, you'll hear them every day
Then there's the woman that always gives your phone a ring
She'll talk for two hours about anything
Especially her bad kin folk goin ruining everything
You sit there half asleep, brewing, stewing, she says finally
Hey, whatcha doin?
Foolish questions, you oughta tell her that you're gone
Just about an hour ago I thought I heard the phone
It couldn't have been you though cause I've been asleep
Why don't you call me sometime
Silly questions get a silly answer every time
Then you just get outta the hospital after about a three month stay
Had every bone in you broken, and you're tryin to make your way
An old friend steps right up to you and says, hey how's Trix?
You've been in the hospital three long months and he says, hey, you been sick?
Foolish question, nah I like my meals in bed
Cost ain't a lot and I'm curing up purity good now
Why don't you go break your leg, that attraction there is fine
Foolish questions get a silly answer every time
Well you step into an elevator and you open up the door
You walk right into the shaft and fall down forty floors
And when you hit the bottom and you're laying there in the dirt
The first person that's gonna come along gonna say, you hurt?
Foolish questions, your dying words are no
I was kinda in a hurry and well the elevator's too slow
I find a save a lot of time, comin down that way
Foolish questions, yeah you'll hear them everyday.
