Lyrics June Carter Cash

June Carter Cash

No Swallerin' Place

I've got a song, it's a pretty good song

Only one thing wrong with a pretty good song

'Cause a pretty good song goes a long

And a long and a long and a long and a long

And a long and a long and a long and a long

'Til it gets me red in the face

'Cause it ain't got no swallerin' place

I can finish a sack of cracker jacks in 15 seconds flat

And still keep the conversation running fair

I can kiss my darling sweetheart and hold it half an hour

And I ain't half dead when I come up for air

But darn, this song it's a pretty good song

Only one thing wrong with a pretty good song

'Cause a pretty good song goes a long and a long

And a long and a long and a long and a long

And a long and a long and a long and a long

Like a doggone marathon race

'Cause it ain't got no swallerin' place

Here's that tune it's a pretty good tune

But I just ain't built like a rubber balloon

It's a pretty good tune and a croon

And a croon and a croon and a croon

And a croon and a croon and a croon

And croon and croon

And I can't keep up with the pace

'Cause it ain't got no swallerin' place

Now I can finish a sack of cracker jacks in 15 seconds flat

And still keep the conversation running fair

When I kiss my loving sweetheart, I can hold it half an hour

And I ain't half dead when I come up for air

But darn, this song it's a pretty good song

Only one thing wrong with a pretty good song

'Cause a pretty good song goes a long and a long

And a long and a long and a long and a long

And a long and a long and a long and a long

Like a doggone marathon race

'Cause it ain't got no swallerin' place
