Marc Cohn- The things we've handed down.

Dont know much about you
Dont know who you are
We've been doing fine without you
But we can only go so far
Don't know why you chose us
Were you watching from above
Is their someone their that knows us
Said we'd give you all our love
Will you laugh just like your mother?
Will your sigh like your old man?
Willl somethings skip a generation
Like ive hear they often can
Are you a poet or a dancer?
A devil or a clown?
Or a strange new combination of the things we've handed down?
I wonder who you'll look like will your hair fall down in curls?
Will you be a mumma's boy or daddies li'l girl?
Will you be a sad reminder of whats been lost allong the way?
Maybe you can help me find her in the things you do and say
And these thing we have given you are not so easily found
Ohhh but you can thank us later for the things we've handed down
You may not always be so grateful for the way that you were made
Maybe some features of your fathers that you'd gladly sell or trade
And one day you may look at us and say that you were cursed
Ohh but all the time that line has been extremely well rehearsed
By our fathers and their fathers in some old and distant town
The places no one remebers 'cause the things we've handed down
