Where'd you get those
Hand me down blues
You gave'em to me
I gave'em back to you
Now every time I see you
You're layin' around
Pullin' you up
Is draggin' me down
You're draggin' me down
How can things look up
If you're starin' at your shoes
Talkin' 'bout the future
Like it's yesterday's news
You close the blinds
To block the view
And pull another all-nighter
In your hand me down blues
Your hand me down blues
Some things you don't get over
You just get through
Life happened to me
And it happened to you
Hear the church bells chime
Feel the pendulum swing
Get ready for whatever
The days gonna bring
Sometimes I shake
Sometimes I sing
With the hand me down
Hand me down blues
Where'd you get those
Hand me down blues
You gave'em to me
I gave'em back to you
