Your Dad Did - John Hiatt[00:00:01]
Written by:John Hiatt[00:00:02]
When the sun comes up[00:00:24]
And you stare your cup of coffee yup[00:00:25]
Right through the kitchen floor[00:00:26]
You feel like hell[00:00:31]
So you might as well get out and sell[00:00:32]
Your smart ass door to door[00:00:34]
And the Mrs wears her robe slightly undone[00:00:39]
As your daughter dumps her oatmeal on your son[00:00:47]
And you keep it hid[00:00:54]
Just like your dad did[00:00:58]
Just like your dad did[00:01:02]
So you go to work just to watch some jerk[00:01:08]
Pick up the perks[00:01:10]
You were in line to get[00:01:10]
And the guy that hired you just got fired[00:01:15]
Your job's expired[00:01:17]
They just ain't told you yet[00:01:19]
So you go and buy a brand new set of wheels[00:01:23]
Just to show your family just how great you feel[00:01:31]
Acting like a kid[00:01:39]
Just like your dad did[00:01:42]
Just like your dad did[00:01:46]
And you're a chip off the old block[00:01:53]
Why does it come as such a shock[00:01:56]
That every road up which you rock[00:02:00]
Your dad already did[00:02:04]
Yeah you've seen the old man's ghost[00:02:08]
Come back as creamed chipped beef on toast[00:02:12]
Now if you don't get your slice of the roast[00:02:16]
You're gonna flip your lid[00:02:20]
Just like your dad did[00:02:24]
Just like your dad did[00:02:28]
Well the day was long now supper's on[00:02:46]
The thrill is gone[00:02:48]
But something's taking place[00:02:49]
Yeah the food is cold and your wife feels old[00:02:54]
But all hands fold[00:02:56]
As the two year old says grace[00:02:57]
She says help the starving children to get well[00:03:01]
But let my brother's hamster burn in hell[00:03:09]
You love your wife and kids[00:03:17]
Just like your dad did[00:03:20]
Just like your dad did yeah[00:03:24]
Just like your dad did[00:03:32]
Just like your dad did[00:03:36]
