Cool

He really liked flanel with red over alls

If you look in his closet it was all that you saw

He dressed up on Sunday and thought he look neat

In a green leasure suit with wing tips on his feet

And I was 15 and real hip with long hair

And I asked momma why is daddy so square

And I couldn't belive all that he didn't know

I guess it's hard to be kool when your 40 years old

The night I turned 20 she came with the news

Scared half to death and didn't know what to do

I told her I'm sorry but it's not to late there's a docter

I heard of that fixes mastakes

I though he was workin' and I was alone

But he was stang behind me when I hug up the phone

He said son there's a few thing you don't know about

If you listen real close we can figure this out

Cus I was 18 and as wild as it came when one night

A young girl told me the samethingand you wouldn't be here

If she haden't said no you see it's hard to be cool when you'r 20 years old

These day's I like flanel and old leive jeans

And I look at my young boy who just turned 15 and I know what he's thinking

But's it ok to know because it's hard to be cool

When your 15 years old
