Things We've Handed Down (Remastered LP Version) - MARC COHN[00:00:00]
Don't know much about you[00:00:39]
Don't know who you are[00:00:42]
We've been doing fine without you[00:00:46]
But we could only go so far[00:00:49]
Don't know why you chose us[00:00:53]
Were you watching from above[00:00:57]
Is there someone there that knows us[00:01:00]
Said we'd give you all our love[00:01:04]
Will you laugh just like your mother[00:01:15]
Will you sigh like your old man[00:01:19]
Will some things skip a generation[00:01:22]
Like heard they often can[00:01:26]
Are you a poet or a dancer[00:01:30]
A devil or a clown[00:01:34]
Or a strange new combination of[00:01:39]
The things we've handed down[00:01:44]
I wonder who you'll look like[00:01:53]
Will your hair fall down and curl[00:01:56]
Will you be a mama's boy[00:02:00]
Or daddy's little girl[00:02:04]
Will you be a sad reminder[00:02:07]
Of what's been lost along the way[00:02:11]
Maybe you can help me find her[00:02:14]
In the things you do and say[00:02:17]
And these things that we have given you[00:02:29]
They are not so easily found[00:02:33]
But you can thank us later[00:02:39]
For the things we've handed down[00:02:41]
For the things we've handed down[00:02:50]
You may not always be so grateful[00:03:05]
For the way that you were made[00:03:09]
Maybe some feature of your father's[00:03:13]
That you'd gladly sell or trade[00:03:15]
And one day you may look at us[00:03:20]
And say that you were cursed[00:03:24]
But over time that line has been[00:03:28]
Extremely well rehearsed[00:03:31]
By our fathers and their fathers[00:03:36]
In some old and distant town[00:03:40]
From places no one here remembers[00:03:45]
Come the things we've handed down[00:03:49]
The things we've handed down[00:03:57]
The things we've handed down[00:04:04]
