The first time you stole flowers from the grave  Then, the second time, you shaved your head, you had been saved  By the very friendly, Jesus man  And all he said, "Well, I'm your brother, man"    In the winter time you - you wore patch-work hard-me-downs  In the summer time - you were all bronzed, while I was brown  And they didn't ask you where you got the candy  No, they didn't ask you where you got the tan    In the morning time - we played travels in the sea  In the evening time - we had reduced the sea to me  But your mother saved us - from your daddy's hand  Yeah - your mother saved us - from your daddy's hand  From your daddy  From your daddy    With my adult mind -  You know my body feels so strange  If they'd only sign away my life to me  I could be much saner  If they'd only learn to let me  Freedom seek  The world would be less mean  But they never know - how to let you go  But they never know - how to leace me    Yodel - ee  Yod - el - ee
