Mom And Daddy's Money

(albüm: Famous - 2020)

It was a red go-kart, a big backyard.
It was summer trips on the credit card.
A new pair of shoes the first day of school,
So I could feel cool.

It was a hand-me-down Chevy when I turned 16.
A twenty on the counter for some gasoline.
It was free to me. It was mom and daddy's money.

Never knew where it came from, just knew where it went.
Hard to come by, but easy to spend.
If times got tough, man, I couldn't tell.
They went through Hell so I could live
In the land of milk and honey on
Mom and daddy's money, money.

Part-time jobs and mowing yards
Don't cover car wrecks and broken arms,
But they had my back, even when they knew
I couldn't pay 'em back.

The older I got, the more I saw
This whole time, it was time they bought.
They looked out for me 'till I didn't need
Mom and daddy's money.

Never knew where it came from, just knew where it went.
Hard to come by, but easy to spend.
If times got tough, man, I couldn't tell.
They went through Hell so I could live
In the land of milk and honey on
Mom and daddy's money.

Well, dollars only go so far.
No, they'll never be enough.
The money runs out, but their love, it never does.
And that's mom and daddy's money.

Now I know where it came from, and I know what it meant.
I know it's hard to come by and easy to spend.
And if times get tough, man, I'll never tell.
I'll go through Hell so they can live
In the land of milk and honey on
Mom and daddy's money.
Ain't it kinda funny – mom and daddy's money, money.

Looking back it ain't hard to see all the
Little things that they did for me, and if I'm lucky
One day a little voice will ask me
For mom and daddy's money.
