Lyrics:
Might have known that it would rain today
Fit for a farmer on his way
To heaven, where the fields are always green
For the first time I looked down on you
Its the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do
Now I’m mad as hell,
And can’t believe what I’m seeing
why did they put you in that suit?
They must have gotten you confused
With those men that took your farm,
stole your pride, broke grandma’s heart
If I got here two days ago
You wouldn’t be layin there in them clothes
You’d have on a pearl-snap shirt
Them ol’ levi’s and work boots
Cause that suit don’t suit you
When Daddy left in 92
You were the only daddy I ever knew
You understood what no one else could understand
But I gotta look away, can’t look at you
cause a working man, dont wear Sunday shoes
And sure as hell ain’t goin home with clean hands
why did they put you in that suit?
They must have gotten you confused
With those men that took your farm, stole your pride, broke grandma’s heart
If I got here two days ago
You wouldn’t be layin there in them clothes
You’d have on a pearl-snap shirt, ol’ levi’s and work boots
Cause that suit don’t suit you
I shouldn’t of stayed away so long
I should have been here all along
To send you off to the Lord in your
Overalls
why did they put you in that suit?
They must have gotten you confused
With those men that took your farm, stole your pride, broke grandma’s heart
If I got here two days ago
You wouldn’t be layin there in them clothes
You’d have on a pearl-snap shirt, ol’ levi’s and work boots
Cause that suit don’t suit you
