Well, the day was long now, supper’s on
The thrill is gone
But something’s taking place
Yeah, the food is cold and your wife feels old
But all hands fold
As the two year old says grace
She says, “Help the starving children to get well
But let my brother’s hamster burn in hell.”
You love your wife and kids
Just like your dad did.
John Hiatt with the perfect dad song:
I LOVE this song! Also, like John Prine, John Hiatt is way under appreciated as a songwriter.
Yes, he really is. I love this song, too.
