Sour Grapes by John Prine Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I don't care if the sun don't shine
But it better or people will wonder
No matter if it ever quits rainin'
Except the kids are afraid of the thunder
[Chorus]
Say sour grapes
You can laugh and stare
Say sour grapes
But I don't care
[Verse 2]
I couldn't care less if I didn't have a friend
Except people would say I was crazy
I wouldn't work 'cause I don't need money
Except the same folks would say I was lazy
[Chorus]
Say sour grapes
You can laugh and stare
Say sour grapes
But I don't care
[Verse 3]
I couldn't care less if she never come back
I was gonna leave her anyway
And all the good times that we shared
Don't mean a thing today
[Chorus]
Say sour grapes
You can laugh and stare
Say sour grapes
But I don't care
I don't care if the sun don't shine
But it better or people will wonder
No matter if it ever quits rainin'
Except the kids are afraid of the thunder
[Chorus]
Say sour grapes
You can laugh and stare
Say sour grapes
But I don't care
[Verse 2]
I couldn't care less if I didn't have a friend
Except people would say I was crazy
I wouldn't work 'cause I don't need money
Except the same folks would say I was lazy
[Chorus]
Say sour grapes
You can laugh and stare
Say sour grapes
But I don't care
[Verse 3]
I couldn't care less if she never come back
I was gonna leave her anyway
And all the good times that we shared
Don't mean a thing today
[Chorus]
Say sour grapes
You can laugh and stare
Say sour grapes
But I don't care
