Outfit |
| You wanna grow up to paint houses like me |
| With a trailer in my yard till you’re 23 |
| You wanna feel old after 42 years |
| Keep dropping the hammer and grinding the gear |
| Well I used to go out in a Mustang |
| A 302 Mach One in green |
| Till me and your mama made you in the back |
| And I sold it to buy her a ring |
| And I learned not to say much of nothing |
| So I figure you already know |
| But in case you don’t or maybe you forgot |
| I’ll lay it out real nice and slow |
| Don’t call what you’re wearing an outfit |
| Don’t ever say your car is broke |
| Don’t worry about losing your accent |
| Cause a Southern Man tells better jokes |
| Have fun but stay clear of the needle |
| Call home on your sister’s birthday |
| Don’t tell them you’re bigger than Jesus |
| Don’t give it away |
| Don’t give it away |
| Five years in a St. Florian foundry |
| They call Industrial Park |
| I worked hospital maintenance and Tech School |
| Just to memorize Frigidaire parts |
| But I got to missing your mama |
| And I got to missing you too |
| So I went back to painting for my old man |
| And I guess that’s what I’ll always do |
| So don’t let 'em take who you are boy |
| And don’t try to be who you ain’t |
| And don’t let me catch you in Kendale |
| With a bucket of wealthy man’s paint |
| Don’t call what you’re wearing an outfit |
| Don’t ever say your car is broke |
| Don’t sing with a fake British accent |
| Boy don’t act like your family’s a joke |
| Have fun, but stay clear of the needle |
| Call home on your sister’s birthday |
| Don’t tell them you’re bigger than Jesus |
| Don’t give it away |
| Don’t give it away |
