Lyrics

Thank you all so much for that
 ♪
 You wanna grow up to paint houses like me
 With a trailer in my yard 'til you're 23
 You wanna feel old after 42 years
 Keep dropping the hammer and grinding the gear
 Well, I used to go out in a Mustang
 A 302 Mach One in green
 'Til me and your mama made you in the back
 And I sold it to buy her a ring
 And I learned not to say much of nothing
 So I figure you already know
 But in case you don't or maybe you forgot
 I'll lay it out real nice and slow
 Don't call what you're wearing an outfit
 Don't ever say your car is broke
 And don't worry 'bout losing your accent
 'Cause a southern man tells better jokes
 Have fun and stay clear of the needle
 Call home on your sister's birthday
 Don't tell 'em you're bigger than Jesus
 Don't give it away
 Don't give it away
 Five years in a St. Florian foundry
 They call Industrial Park
 I worked 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 let 'em take 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 you're wearing an outfit
 Don't ever say your car is broke
 And don't sing with a fake British accent
 Boy, and don't act like your family's a joke
 Have fun and stay clear of the needle
 Call home on your sister's birthday
 Don't tell 'em you're bigger than Jesus
 Don't give it away
 Don't give it away

 Thank you all very much
 I'm Jason Isbell
 Thanks for coming to the show
