lyrics

Quick One
Well Daddy was a quick one,
And Mama ran too.
They say I’m just like they are,
You know that I’m fast too.
‘Cause Daddy wore white shoes,
And Mama wore blue.
They say I dress like they did,
And man I hope that’s true.
‘Cause Daddy was a fair man,
And Mama was kind.
They say I act like they did,
And man I hope they’re right.
Chorus:
Though he came back so differently than when he left
Dreams of fire and war they filled his head.
He came back so differently than when he left;
Now he’ll never go from my side again.
So I’ll go out now,
I’m gonna tell those kids,
That they’re not condemned to
Live like their parents did.
‘Cause if your Mama was white boy,
And if your Daddy was black,
Well then you look like they did,
And you’re a bright eyed fact.
Chorus:
Though he came back so differently than when he left:
Dreams of fire and war they filled his head.
He came back so differently than when he left;
And now he’ll never go from my side again.
