Don't bother grandma 'cause she's right |
| [00:14.18] |
Or you'll be in some mess |
| [00:17.10] |
|
| [00:18.48] |
I see how you see her creaky bones, |
| [00:23.04] |
bitchin' 'bout IRS |
| [00:25.60] |
|
| [00:27.66] |
Well, take a look child through this photo album |
| [00:31.77] |
|
| [00:32.65] |
She sang to sailors in the war, baseball stadiums |
| [00:36.89] |
Nineteen forty eight |
| [00:40.52] |
|
| [00:46.01] |
Well, now you'll graduate |
| [00:48.26] |
And you think you're going to move out now |
| [00:52.94] |
|
| [00:55.19] |
I will congratulate you |
| [00:57.74] |
as soon as you pay your own way |
| [01:01.91] |
|
| [01:04.29] |
Not tryin' to stick a pin in your shiny new balloon |
| [01:09.59] |
Your alimony check won't buy a bigger room |
| [01:13.64] |
or a new car |
| [01:17.53] |
|
| [01:24.89] |
Don't ever think about coming 'round here |
| [01:28.21] |
|
| [01:30.63] |
With that junior from up the street |
| [01:33.93] |
|
| [01:36.25] |
Sneakers squeaking on the kitchen tile, |
| [01:39.74] |
hat pulled below his eyes |
| [01:42.11] |
That boy is trouble in his sleep |
| [01:45.11] |
|
| [01:47.73] |
You got your father's reckless charm, babe |
| [01:51.35] |
|
| [01:53.47] |
Long as you're giving, somebody'll take |
| [01:56.89] |
|
| [01:59.25] |
Oh, every sermon is not the gospel, babe |
| [02:02.44] |
Let me put it in another way, |
| [02:05.05] |
every valley is not a lake |
| [02:08.12] |
|
| [02:21.65] |
Before I let you go with your friends |
| [02:25.52] |
|
| [02:26.21] |
got one more thing to say |
| [02:28.46] |
|
| [02:30.83] |
You think my love is tough |
| [02:33.12] |
Should've seen your grandma in her day |
| [02:37.67] |
|
| [02:40.11] |
Oh, use your wits child 'cause nothing stays the same |
| [02:45.28] |
In forty years my song will be public domain |
| [02:49.34] |
Oh, oh, oh, sharp tongue, quick switch, |
| [03:00.45] |
|
| [03:03.64] |
sharp tongue, quick switch |
| [03:09.94] |
|
| [03:13.30] |
We'll make, finally a quality man |
