John Prine - If I Could (Live)

If I could make my living going fishing
Then I would make my living with a line and pole
Put food on the table, pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes
'Cause I ain't making money going fishing like I'm paid at the factory

If I could pay all these bills with my guitar
Then I would pay these bills with some rock and roll
Put food on the table, pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes
'Cause I ain't making money playing guitar like I'm paid at the factory

Now if I could (If I could)
Then I would (Then I would)
Make money doing something that I love
I'd thank my lucky stars above
If I could just get by loving you, dear
Thеn I would just get by making love to you
Put food on the tablе, pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes
'Cause I ain't making money making love like I'm paid at the factory

Now if I could (If I could)
Then I would (Then I would)
Make money doing something that I love
I'd thank my lucky stars above
If I could make my living going fishing
Then I would make my living with a line and pole
Put food on the table, pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes
'Cause I ain't making money going fishing like I'm paid at the factory

Now if I could (If I could)
Then I would (Then I would)
Make money doing something that I love
I'd thank my lucky stars above
If I could just get by loving you, dear
Then I would just get by making love to you
Put food on the table, pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes
'Cause I ain't making money making love like I'm paid at the factory
Put food on the table, pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes
'Cause I ain't making money making love like I'm paid at the factory
Put food on the table, pay the money to the landlord
Buy some working clothes
'Cause I ain't making money making love like I'm paid at the factory
