Janis Joplin – Port Arthur High School Reunion Lyrics

What do you think about your town since you've left and come back?
It's fantastic! I was across the river from the club last night, I never had more fun in my life! Except sometimes in california I have more fun
Do you plan to come back soon?
Oh? Er, er, er, I have no immediate plans, ha ha ha!!
Did you entertain in high school, at the high school, when you went back at the high school?

How were you different from your schoolmates when you were a teenager?

Did they make you different?
No

I felt apart from them
Did you take a part in football games?

Oh, you were asked, weren't you?
No, I wasn't. I don't think, I don't think they wanted to take me. Till I'll be a hundred and sufferin'! It's enough to make you wanna sing the blues!
