Watches And Chains(Album Version)

歌詞

You and mother would cry when dad went away Selling his watches and chains He'd be gone for a while Weeks at a time The neighbors all started to say You and your mother should not disagree that he's wasting away (Wasting) Wasting, wasting away All of his morals, theology Have been left to decay (Left to) Left to decay Where is your meat? Where is your fruit, where is your bread Have you eaten today? (Have you) Have you eaten today? You and your mother would say Pay them no heed, they don't know what they say They don't know what they say Then your father would come home All of your doubts, questions, and worries were gone The house across the street The rumors and lies they were near You and your mother should not disagree that he's wasting away (Wasting) Wasting, wasting away All of his morals, theology Have been left to decay (Left to) Left to decay Where is your meat? Where is your fruit, where is your bread Have you eaten today? (Have you) Have you eaten today? You and your mother would say Pay them no heed, they don't know what they say They don't know what they say So get your bible and read The passages written for thee So rumors don't set in as truth So your neighbor's lies don't get to you And you and your mom shouldn't cry For dad will be home in due time He has only left to provide A meal and a roof to stay dry
