Outfit (Live at Flicker Bar - Athens, GA - June 20th, 2002)

[Verse 1]
You wanna grow up to paint houses like me
A trailer in my yard 'til you're twenty-three
You wanna feel old after forty-two years
Keep droppin' the hammer and grindin' the gears
Well, I used to go out in a Mustang
A 302 Mach One in green
Me and your mama made you in the back
And I sold it to buy her a ring (Woo, woo, woo, yeah)
And I learned not to say much of nothin'
So I figured you already know
But in case you don't or maybe forgot
I'll lay it out real nice and slow

[Chorus]
Don't call what you're wearin' an outfit
Don't ever say your car is broke
Don't worry 'bout losin' your accent
A Southern man tells better jokes (Ow, woo)
Have fun, but stay clear of the needle
Call home on your sister's birthday
Don't tell 'em you're bigger than Jesus
Don't give it away
Don't give it away

[Verse 2]
Five years in a St. Florian foundry
They call it Industrial Park
Then hospital maintenance and Tech School
So I could memorize Frigidaire parts
But I got to missin' your mama
And I got to missin' you too
And I went back to painting for my old man
And I guess that's what I'll always do
So don't let 'em take who you are, boy
And don't try to be who you ain't
And don't let me catch you in Kendale
With a bucket of a wealthy man's paint

[Chorus]
Don't call what you're wearin' an outfit
Don't ever say your car is broke
Don't sing with a fake British accent
Don't act like your family's a joke
Have fun, and stay clear of the needle
Call home on your sister's birthday
Don't tell 'em you’re bigger than Jesus
Don't give it away
Don't give it away
(One more time)
Don't give it away

[Outro]
([?], haha)
(Two more times)

[Applause]

[Segue]
So, y'all have an okay time?
Is everything okay [?]?
Woo, woo, woo
That's a good'n, ain't it dad?
So did you give it to your dad for Father's Day?
Oh, yeah, he did—
Did he cry?
He got a lil' sniffly, he got—
Haha
He had a hard time
Man, if I ever have a son and he ever wrote somethin' like that and gave it to me for Father's Day
I'd bawl like a goddamn baby in front of him
And then I'd get me a stick and beat the shit out of him
Hahaha, woo
