Well you always like to take advice from The worst possible source that you could get Well it's a testament to how you act And how you are and how you try to live Do the sins of your father Really not make you rather concerned? Well look out baby I'm coming in hot, Gonna teach you all of the stuff that you should have learned And ain't it strange to think how quickly, how quickly time's passed Well you were headed straight for glory Doing right not doing wrong but that all passed Oh and ain't it such a daggone shame When you finally realize you've gone blind Well you never could see through, never could see through You never could see through your foggy eye Well send me west toward the sun Or east toward the moon fast as you can Well I offer sympathetic thoughts For the one that never even offered me her hand Do the sins of your father really not bother you at all? Well look at me, I'm standing now but I'm gonna be the one that takes the fall And ain't it strange to think how quickly, how quickly time has passed Well you were headed straight for glory Doing right not doing wrong but that all passed Oh and ain't it such a daggone shame When you finally realize you've gone blind Oh well now you never could see through, you never could see through You never could see through that foggy eye
