"Long Song Comin'" lyrics

Politician 'bout to make his speech
Signal for attention, please
Then he shuffled his notes
And wiped his sweating brow
I looked at my friend next to me
And we don't dare agree
Before this is over
We'll wish we woulda left right now

'Cause it sounds like a long song comin'
And it looks like he might throw in a little dancin', too
Yes, it sounds like a long song comin'
And buddy, listen, buddy, we got better things to listen to

Lady from a church bazaar
Was smiling from her head to her feet
All the way down to her feet
That she couldn't see
She started speakin' her piece
I said, "Stop. Wait a minute, please
Before you start talkin'
I wish you'd please listen to me."

'Cause it sounds like a long song comin'
And though some of the things you might say, honey, will be true
It still sounds like a long song comin'
And baby, listen, lady, I got better things to listen to
Oh yeah

Yes, it sounds like a long song comin'
And it looks like you might throw in a little dancin', too
Yes, it sounds like a long song comin'
And buddy, listen, buddy, we got better things to listen to

Say, so it sounds like a long song comin'
And it sounds like some just might be true
Still it sounds like a long song comin'
And buddy, listen, buddy, we got better things to listen to

I said, "Buddy, listen. Buddy, we got better things to listen to."
