"Everything Seemed Alright"
(Mary McBride. Fred Eaglesmith)
Everything seemed alright
Then the pills ran out
Everything seemed alright
Gotta holler gotta shout
I walked out the door / Turned right around
Called up the doctor / But he’s out of town
Wanda June was hit by a car
Hazel got lupus / Can’t walk anymore
Buddy came home / his house was on fire
Walked in on you with a woman in your arms
Everything seemed alright
Then the goddamned bottom fell out
BRIDGE
Ain’t gonna smooth over, pass on by
Ain’t gonna rest easy, fall in line
Everything seemed alright x 3
Then the goddamned bottom fell out
Everything seemed allright
Then I was shoved in the ribs On the D Train
My sister went away/ Don’t call anymore
She’s living out there In her own private war
Everything seemed alright
Everything seemed alright
Everything alright
Then the goddamned bottom fell out
