Six months in a St Florian foundry they call it Industrial Park
Then 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 try to change 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 your wearing an outfit Don't ever say your car is broke
Don't sing with a fake British accent 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
