(Things We Said Today)


Don’t pull your face that way
If the wind does change
Your face will stay that way
No way to rearrange

No, don’t talk to strangers
When you are so far away
I hope you will remember
Things us oldies say

You do as I say now
Not as I do, mind
Don’t say a harsh word now
If there’s nothing kind

Better wear clean undies
In case a car runs over along the way
I hope you will remember
Things us oldies say


Leave it alone or you will find
That kind of love will put hair on your palm
And though we may go blind
Love is here to stay and that's enough

Don’t make me come in there
When your father’s home
It’s time to cut your hair
We'll go on and on

Better wear clean undies
In case a car runs over along the way
I hope you will remember
Things us oldies say
