Please Let Me Go Round Again Lyrics

[Chorus: John Prine & Swamp Dogg]
Please let me go 'round again
Oh, life, can't you afford me another chance?
If you'll let me go 'round again
I'll build a better mousetrap from a far more better plan

[Verse 1: Swamp Dogg]
Everything I put my hands on, I blew it
Women, jobs, money, friends, and I knew it
Packed in crazy, talkin' dumb all the time
I woke up yesterday, I was forty years old, life had passed me by

[Chorus: Swamp Dogg & John Prine]
Please let me go 'round again
Oh, life, can't you afford me another chance?
If you'll let me go 'round again
I'll build a better mousetrap from a far more better plan

[Verse 2: John Prine]
I got children that don't even know me, and that's not fair
I got children right here at home, and they don't care
I've been a reckless, ramblin', restless, rover most of my life
Everything has been a series of mistakes, ain't never done nothin' right

[Chorus: John Prine & Swamp Dogg]
Please let me go 'round again
Oh, life, can't you afford me another chance?
If you'll let me go 'round again I'll build a better mousetrap from a far more better plan

[Outro: Swamp Dogg & John Prine]
John, you think you could build a better mousetrap?
I know I could
Give me one more chance
I don't know
Just one more chance, Swamp
I believe I could
I got a better mousetrap in my mind right now
I'm scared to bet on myself
I'll bet on ya
I'll bet on you (Haha), but I done screwed up so much
Well, maybe we'd get a two-for-one
Maybe they'd give us both another chance
At half price?
We could get a two-handed sweater
Yeah, right, ha-ha-ha
Hey, man
Please let me go 'round again
I want to thank you for that "Sam Stone," man
Ha-ha, you bet
You were writin' something good
You got it wrapped without a paper, Swamp
Haha, yeah
Please let me go 'round again
Let me go around again
Please let me go 'round again
Let me go, let me go, let me go
Just one more chance
You think that's all you need, just one more?
I think so (Haha)
That's what we both said the last time
Haha
Screwed it right in half, haha
Lord, have mercy
