Lyrics for Song: You Caught Me Laughin'
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - John Hiatt
We went to church last Sunday
I held your little hand
And we listened to the gospel
Of an old time preachin' man
In the middle of the sermon
He cracked a little smile
And said, "Jesus will take care of you
I'll see you after while"
Well, you caught me laughin'
Though it was not a joke
Well, you caught me laughin'
Underneath the holy smoke
I showed up at your wedding
I was crazy like a loon
Before I realized what was happening
I was your bridegroom
In the middle of the wedding vows
You looked at me and smiled
And said, "Jesus will take care of you
I'll see you after while"
And now I'm gettin' older
Got cancer in my lung
Well, somebody smoked my cigarette
And I think you're the one
And laying on my death bed
You look at me and smile
And said, "Jesus will take care of you
I'll see you after while"
