lyrics

Paper ain't printed on Saturday
Anyway everyday it's the same
Ain't a burger to be found in all Sactown
Ok by me it's bringing grandma down

And the sprinklers are running in the rain
I'm locked up am I insane
Is this real life or some sick game, no way
Yeah the sprinklers are running in the rain

Grandma forgot to turn the heat down again
Feels like waking up in a frying pan
and the porch stays dark all through the night
A bandit broke in I said alright, that's fine, I've been hunting for the gold since '49, so sleep tight
Yeah the sprinklers are running in the rain...

John Prine died on an full moon night
I felt the needle cut through my eye
From town to town we all shelter inside
Are you praying like grandma and me
To the Angel from Montgomery
Are you praying like grandma and me cuz the sprinklers are running in the rain...
