One more!

Well I heard steve earle had lots of wives

Met him on his records and we're good friends

He writes a song for everyone

They fall in love and before it's done

He writes an even better one when it ends

Steve, it rains at my house everyday

He met 'em all in every port

But I love apples and I could learn to love the snow
