It was a red go-kart, a big backyard It was summer trips on the credit card A new pair of shoes the first day of school So I could feel cool
It was a hand-me-down Chevy when I turned 16 A twenty on the counter for some gasoline It was free to me. It was mom and daddy's money
Never knew where it came from, just knew where it went Hard to come by, but easy to spend If times got tough, man, I couldn't tell They went through Hell so I could live In the land of milk and honey on Mom and daddy's money, money
Part-time jobs and mowin' yards Don't cover car wrecks and broken arms But they had my back, even when they knew I couldn't pay 'em back
The older I got, the more I saw This whole time, it was time they bought They looked out for me 'till I didn't need Mom and daddy's money
Never knew where it came from, just knew where it went Hard to come by, but easy to spend If times got tough, man, I couldn't tell They went through Hell so I could live In the land of milk and honey on Mom and daddy's money
Well, dollars only go so far No, they'll never be enough The money runs out, but their love, it never does And that's mom and daddy's money
Now I know where it came from, and I know what it meant I know it's hard to come by and easy to spend And if times get tough, man, I'll never tell I'll go through Hell so they can live In the land of milk and honey on Mom and daddy's money Ain't it kinda funny – mom and daddy's money, money
Lookin' back it ain't hard to see all the Little things that they did for me, and if I'm lucky One day a little voice will ask me For mom and daddy's moneyTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
