Me & My Dad Lyrics - Stan Ridgway

Me and my dad 

We've got a good thing going 

Fishing trips, the hard way's the best 

Man-to-man talks, when the going gets tough 

The tough get going 

Follow me, son 

I'll guide you the right way 

Fix my car when the engine falls apart 

Show me where the piston goes 

Can you get this thing to start? 

Father talks big business with authority 

He's the big boss, he knows the levels of consistency 

Father knows how to read his morning paper 

Tellin' me how he died to live, workin' hard labor 

Chorus: 

Me and my dad 

Me and my dad 

Me and my dad 

We've got a good thing going 

Father talks big business with authority 

He's the big boss, he knows the levels of consistency 

Father knows how to read his morning paper 

He's tellin' me how he died to live, workin' hard labor 

Chorus repeat until fade
