作词 : McLagan, Stewart | |
(Ian McLagan, Rod Stewart) | |
I don't need no one's opinion | |
On the matter concerning my dress. | |
I was raised in a clinic down in | |
Oklahoma, | |
There were many things | |
I did not possess. | |
I never complained, because my father said, "Son you'll get your chance before you're my age". | |
Then he took me upstairs and gave me this suit | |
Written all over his face | |
He said, "Others may come and others may go, But that suit will be around wherever you're goin'" | |
Three button hand me down | |
Three button hand me down | |
I had my fair share of neat women, | |
But they came between me and my suit. | |
That was a filly from | |
Boston, a barmaid from | |
Houston, Not forgetting the one in | |
Detroit. They said, "We like you boy and we think you're sweet, But can't you lose your suit?" | |
I said, "No, you can't do that to me" | |
I remember what my father said: | |
He said, "Others may come and others may go, But that suit will be around wherever you're goin'" | |
Three button hand me down, ha ha, | |
Three button hand me down | |
I've never been a tidy dresser | |
And the fold in my trousers it ain't straight. | |
Still I know a good cloth when | |
I see one. | |
That's why | |
I'm clad in this gray flannel suit. | |
Sometimes | |
I wonder if | |
I should visit a tailor | |
And get myself a smooth outfit. | |
Then I remember what my father said to me. | |
I'll make you from the open road | |
He said, "Others may come and others may go, But that suit will be around wherever you go" | |
Three button hand me down, | |
Three button hand me down |
