The first time you stole flowers from the grave
  Then, the second time, you shaved your head, you had been saved
  By the very friendly, Jesus man
  And all he said, "Well, I'm your brother, man"
    In the winter time you - you wore patch-work hard-me-downs
  In the summer time - you were all bronzed, while I was brown
  And they didn't ask you where you got the candy
  No, they didn't ask you where you got the tan
    In the morning time - we played travels in the sea
  In the evening time - we had reduced the sea to me
  But your mother saved us - from your daddy's hand
  Yeah - your mother saved us - from your daddy's hand
  From your daddy
  From your daddy
    With my adult mind -
  You know my body feels so strange
  If they'd only sign away my life to me
  I could be much saner
  If they'd only learn to let me
  Freedom seek
  The world would be less mean
  But they never know - how to let you go
  But they never know - how to leace me
