The Things We've Handed Down - MARC COHN[00:00:00]

Written by：Marc Cohn[00:00:20]

I don't know much about you[00:00:41]

I don't know who you are[00:00:44]

And we've been doing fine without you[00:00:47]

But we could only go so far[00:00:51]

I don't know why you chose us[00:00:55]

Were you watching from above[00:00:59]

Is there someone there that knows us[00:01:02]

Said we'd give you all our love[00:01:06]

Will you laugh just like your mother[00:01:17]

Will you sigh like your old man[00:01:21]

Will some things skip a generation[00:01:24]

Like I've heard they often can[00:01:28]

Are you a poet or a dancer[00:01:32]

A devil or a clown[00:01:36]

Or a strange new combination of[00:01:40]

The things we've handed down[00:01:45]

I wonder who you'll look like[00:01:55]

Will your hair fall down and curl[00:01:58]

Will you be a mama's boy[00:02:02]

Or daddy's little girl[00:02:06]

Will you be a sad reminder[00:02:09]

Of what's been lost along the way[00:02:12]

And maybe you can help me find her[00:02:16]

In the things you do and say[00:02:19]

And these things that we have given you[00:02:31]

They are not so easily found[00:02:35]

But you can thank us later[00:02:39]

For the things we've handed down[00:02:43]

The things we've handed down down[00:02:52]

Down down down down[00:02:55]

You may not always be so grateful[00:03:07]

For the way that you were made[00:03:11]

Maybe some feature of your father's[00:03:15]

That you'd gladly sell or trade[00:03:17]

And one day you may look at us[00:03:22]

And say that you were cursed[00:03:26]

But over time that line has been[00:03:29]

Extremely well rehearsed[00:03:33]

By our fathers and their fathers[00:03:38]

In some old and distant town[00:03:42]

From places no one here remembers[00:03:47]

Come the things we've handed down[00:03:51]

The things we've handed down[00:03:59]

The things we've handed down[00:04:06]
