Hand Me Downs

歌詞

My first bike had a banana seat on it Bright orange with a sunshine on the side The handle bent and my cousin didn't want it So that summer I learned to ride There's a worn-out denim pearl snap in my closet When I got it, it was already getting old The bottom's frayed and the color's gone Even the hanger that it's hanging on Is wishin' I would let it go Like some other things I know Daddy's anger and his pride My mama's sadness, she taught me how to hide There ain't a damn thing that's ever just been mine I'm out here walking around in hand-me-downs I'm a wrecking ball when I get lonely Courtesy of my old man's old man, and his old man And that ain't the kind of heirloom that I wanted Oh, and don't it make me think I'm only made of broken things that I can't stand My daddy's anger and his pride My mama's sadness, she taught me how to hide There ain't a damn thing that's ever just been mine I'm out here walking around, oh, in hand-me-downs Oh, and damn it It's gonna take a long time But if I can just understand it And leave something better behind And if that's the only thing that's ever just mine They won't put me in the ground Oh, in hand-me-downs Hand-me-downs Oh, in hand-me-downs Hand-me-downs
