| John Prine – The Accident (Things Could Be Worse) Lyrics | 3 years ago |
|
@[MartinH4:44306] I read elsewhere a quote from John. The gist was that he visited a town where there was a rape. Someone apparently asked if the rapist was black or white. John was confused as to why someone needed to ask that as a rapist is a rapist no matter what. Apparently he was whiteness to a car accident and so the song was born. A light hearted play on how lucky that no one got hurt. Accusations of racism don’t have to be thrown at every comment. |
