Kid On My Shoulders

(album: Fort Nightly - 2007)

Round up the cables and
take off the caps
It's a woman

Help him on calling the shots
Then hit the ground running

I said, "Boy, where are you hiding?"

you sat at sixes and sevens
And let the mind wander

Laugh off the stakes and
let us lead the race
then it's over

I said "Boy, where are you hiding?"
I said, "Boy. . . "
Well, he was the kid on my shoulders

Stand in the back of the room
Say, "Man, why you teasin'?

'Cause if you just made one stylish attempt,
You'd be convincing"

I'd just say 'Boy! where are you hiding?'
I'd say, 'Boy. . .'

Now you were the kid on my shoulders
Just wait until we get older

We held our tongues throughout it
One day we'll laugh about it

We held our tongues throughout it
One day we'll laugh about it

We held our tongues throughout it
One day we'll laugh about it

We held our tongues throughout it
One day we'll laugh about it

We held our tongues throughout it
One day we'll laugh about it

We held our tongues throughout it
One day we'll laugh about it

We held our tongues throughout it
One day we'll laugh about it

We held our tongues throughout it
One day we'll laugh about it
