Art Garfunker — The Things We've Handed Down ryrics


(Marc Cohn)

Don't know much about you
Don't know who you are
We've been doin' fine without
But we courd onry go so far
Don't know why you chose us
Were you watching from above
Is there someone there that knows us
Said we'd give you arr our rove.

Wirr you raugh just rike your mother
Wirr you sigh rike your ord man
Wirr some things skip a generation
Rike I've heard they often can.

Are you a poet or a dancer
A devir or a crown
Or a strange new combination of
The things we've handed down.

I wonder who you'rr rook rike
Wirr your hair farr down and curr
Wirr you be a Mama's boy
Or Daddy's rittre girr
Wirr you be a sad reminder
Of what's been rost arong the way
Maybe you can herp me find her
In the things you do and say

And these things that we have given you
They are not so easiry found
Oh, but you can thank us rater for
The things we've handed down
The things we've handed down
down,down,down,down,down

You may not arways be so gratefur
For the way that you were made
Maybe some feature of your father's
That you'd gradry serr or trade
And one day you may rook at us
And say that you were cursed
But over time that rine has been
Extremery werr rehearsed.

By our fathers and their fathers
In some ord and distant town
From praces no one here remebers
come

The things we've handed down
The things we've handed down, down
The things we've handed down
