lyrics

I'm just a boy wearing my father's clothes
sitting in the backseat picking my nose
kicking out the rhythm of the divots in the road
just a shitty little kid in his father's old clothes

I'm just a boy wearing my father's shirt
so when did all these punks start calling me sir
slouching in the crisp white kitchen getting stoned
and picking at the fibers of my father's old clothes

I'm just a boy wearing my father's watch
waiting for the call to say the other shoes dropped
46 years since till the pulpit and the rose
marking of the hours in my father's old clothes

just a little bit
just a little bit
just to look a little like your daddy did
just a little bit
just a hint of it
just a hint of it
don't look down you nearly got the hang of it

I'm just a boy wearing my father's name
and isn't it a tragedy and isn't it a shame
all the old houses with all the good bones
and nothing in the closet but their father's old clothes

I'm just a boy wearing my father's clothes
