You Caught Me Laughin'
Performer(s): John Hiatt



We went to church last Sunday 
I held your little hand 
And we listened to the gospel 
Of an old time preachin' man 

In the middle of the sermon 
He cracked a little smile 
And said "Jesus will take care of you" 
"I'll see you after while" 

Chorus: 
Well you caught me laughin' 
Though it was not a joke 
Well you caught me laughin 
Underneath the holy smoke 

I showed up at your wedding 
I was crazy like a loon 
Before I realized what was happening 
I was your bridegroom 

In the middle of the wedding vows 
You looked at me and smiled 
And said "Jesus will take care of you" 
"I'll see you after while" 

And now I'm gettin' older 
Got cancer in my lung 
Well somebody smoked my cigarette 
And I think you're the one 

And laying on my death bed 
You look at me and smile 
And said "Jesus will take care of you" 
"I'll see you after while"
