    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
