“Don’t Forget Your Hat” by Mark Knopfler appears on his 2012 album, Privateering.
The album uses the life of the privateer at sea as a metaphor for life as a musician on the road.
This song is a monologue to a young man who believes he’s already got things figured out.
[Verse 1]
Well, look out the window
Never saw so much rain
You better get down to the station
If you want to catch that train
So long, I guess that's that
Hey, hey, don't forget your hat
[Verse 2]
Well, you don't call the action
You don't make the rules
You don't pay the piper
You don't even pay the fuel
So long, I guess that's that
Hey, hey, don't forget your hat
[Verse 3]
Well, it's a big old world out there
Go get it if you can
You got a ways to go
Before you get to be a man
So long, I guess that's that
Hey, hey, don't forget your hat
