Pretty Good John Prine [Intro] [Verse 1]   I got a friend in Fremont he sells used cars ya know Well he calls me up twice a year Just to ask me how’d it go Pretty good not bad I can’t complain But actually everything is just about the same [Verse 2] I met a girl from Venus her insides were lined in gold Well she did what she did said "How was it kid?" She was politely told Pretty good not bad I can’t complain But actually everything is just about the same [Chorus] Moonlight makes me dizzy Sunlight makes me clean Your light is the sweetest thing That this boy has ever seen [Verse 3] Molly went to Arkansas she got raped by Dobbin’s dog Well she was doing good till she went in the woods And got pinned up against a log Pretty good not bad she can’t complain Cause actually all them dogs is just about the same [Chorus] Moonlight makes me dizzy Sunlight makes me clean Your light is the sweetest thing That this boy has ever seen [Instrumental]                    [Verse 4] I heard Allah and Buddah were singing at the Savior’s feast And up in the sky an Arabian rabbi Fed Quaker oats to a priest. Pretty good not bad they can’t complain Cause actually all them Gods are just about the same Pretty good not bad I can’t complain Cause actually everything is just about the same

La chanson évoque des moments de la vie quotidienne, où des personnages semblent naviguer à travers des expériences variées tout en répondant qu'ils vont "plutôt bien" malgré les difficultés. Le narrateur se rappelle de rencontres étranges et de récits marquants, comme une amie faisant face à des épreuves ou une rencontre fantastique avec une femme de Vénus. Un ton à la fois léger et amer se dégage, accentué par des vérités souvent tues sur l'existence. À travers des images simples et parfois surréalistes, l'artiste aborde des thèmes universels comme l'amour, la souffrance et la quête de sens. Il y a cette idée que, finalement, malgré les hauts et les bas, les expériences humaines se ressemblent souvent.
