The old man never chatted much He wasn’t that kind of guy He doled out chores and he missed my games And we never did see eye to eye But the day my bus was leaving The sky was ripe with snow He tossed my duffle in the truck And he said you’re good to go Like a genie reethed in camel smoke A ball cap wearing Sage Smoke stub hanging from his mug He said son you’ve come of age I can give you no dang money Nor no truck that’s fit to drive But I can leave you these few words And maybe help you stay alive Never eat at a place called moms Don’t play cards with a guy name tom If you find yourself in a high stakes game Tuck your big bills in your sock Be careful who you cotton to Especially the girls If you find someone who loves you, son Go on and give it a whirl Don’t flirt too much with your wife’s best friend Or with your best friends wife Letras de cancionesDon’t drink and play with fire ‘Cus It’ll ruin a fella’s life Don’t steal what don’t belong to you And don’t be afraid to give Try to swing first in a bar room brawl And don’t go intent to tell Never eat at a place called moms Don’t play cards with a guy names tom If you find yourself in a high stakes game Tuck your big bills in your sock Be careful who you cotton to Especially the girls If you find someone who loves you, son Go on and give it a whirl Now once we drew up to the depot He said tell me where you land This snow won’t hold the bus up And he held out his right hand Now in case I’ve never told you this I’m proud to call you son But the best men carry pocket knives And then he gave me one Never eat at a place called moms Don’t play cards with a guy name tom If you’re running around the wrong side of town Tuck your big bills in your sock Be careful who you cotton to Especially the girls If you find someone who loves you, son Go on and give it a whirl If you find someone who loves you, son Go on and give it a whirl (Thanks to Justin for these lyrics) From Letras Mania
