[00:01.32]They had my future wrapped up in a parcel
[00:07.47]And no one even thought of asking me
[00:13.69]The day I turned fifteen I caught the mail train
[00:19.34]To find out what else might be in life for me
[00:25.66]Well I rode on trucks and trains
[00:27.97]and lived on nothin'
[00:32.17]Served me right for wanting to be free
[00:38.25]Ah well that's the way society looked at it
[00:44.57]But it didn't seem to be that way to me
[00:50.69]And the biggest disappointment in the family
[00:55.52]was me
[00:57.19]The only twisted branch upon
[00:59.93]our good old family tree
[01:03.74]I just couldn't be the person
[01:06.25]they expected me to be
[01:09.79]And the biggest disappointment in the world
[01:13.89]was me
[01:18.44]A lot more dinner times than there were dinners
[01:24.37]I learned a lot that hurt me at the time
[01:30.34]Then this quiet country boy
[01:32.55]went home a different man
[01:36.18]With a memory of distance on my mind
[01:42.15]But I always spoke too loud and drank too often
[01:48.33]Maybe drank too many glasses down
[01:54.53]And perhaps my clothes were older than I realised
[02:01.42]A relief to all concerned when I left town
[02:07.38]And the biggest disappointment in the family
[02:12.35]was me
[02:13.94]The only twisted branch upon
[02:17.33]our good old family tree
[02:20.57]I just couldn't be the person
[02:23.34]they expected me to be
[02:26.80]And the biggest disappointment in the world
[02:31.56]was me
[02:33.19]And the biggest disappointment in the family
[02:38.02]was me
[02:39.78]The only twisted branch upon
[02:42.89]our good old family tree
[02:45.75]I just couldn't be the person
[02:48.44]they expected me to be
[02:53.94]And the biggest disappointment in the world
[03:00.71]was me
[03:03.01]
