[00:06.016]They had my future wrapped up in a parcel
[00:11.914]And no one even thought of asking me
[00:17.673]The day I turned fifteen I caught the mail train
[00:23.602]To find what else might be in life for me
[00:29.319]I rode on trucks and trains and lived on nothin'
[00:35.425]Served me right for wanting to be free
[00:40.639]Ah well that's the way society looked at it
[00:46.972]But it didn't seem to be that way to me
[00:52.547]And the biggest disappointment in the family was me
[00:59.127]The only twisted branch upon our good old family tree
[01:04.425]I just couldn't be the person they expected me to be
[01:10.350]And the biggest disappointment in the world wa-as me
[01:21.228]A lot more dinner times than there were dinners
[01:27.248]I learned a lot that hurt me at the time
[01:32.729]Then this quiet country boy went home a different man
[01:38.846]With a memory of distance on my mind
[01:44.615]But I always spoke too loud and laughed too often
[01:50.964]Maybe drank to many glasses down
[01:56.217]And perhaps my clothes were older than I realised
[02:02.437]A relief to all concerned when I left town
[02:08.162]And the biggest disappointment in the family was me
[02:14.790]The only twisted branch upon our good old family tree
[02:20.073]I just couldn't be the person they expected me to be
[02:25.905]And the biggest disappointment in the world wa-as me
[02:33.577]And the biggest disappointment in the family was me
[02:39.887]The only twisted branch upon our good old family tree
[02:45.175]I just couldn't be the person they expected me to be
[02:51.064]And the biggest disappointment in the world wa-as me
