Back then you never let me live without the good stuff
You came and you saved me about a hundred thousand times
I knew that you'd never let the market system take us
You were so suspicious of emancipation guns
And you took this fool far/ and chased trains with the car
Most times I did not understand your reason for flowers
I guessed that you tried to see the best in everyone
Such patience I remember stringing you along for hours
How strange that it was something you valued in a son
And you took this fool far/ and chased trains with the car
You were the strongest one I know/ and you protected me from the cold
