[Verse 1]
When I was still growing up
And Dad head off to work
He put coat and tie on
Over a fitted shirt
Nothing else will fit right
Or seem so directly applied
Than fitted shirt hung on me
Fitted shirt, alright
[Pre-Chorus]
I long for the days
They used to say
Ma'am and yes sir
For now, I'm going to find
Buttons for my
Dad's old used shirt
[Chorus]
Fitted shirt
Fitted shirt
[Verse 2]
Been looking so long now
And no one's seen and no one heard
But when I go out tonight
I'm going to put on a fitted shirt
When I was still growing up
And Dad head off to work
He put coat and tie on
Over a fitted shirt
Nothing else will fit right
Or seem so directly applied
Than fitted shirt hung on me
Fitted shirt, alright
[Pre-Chorus]
I long for the days
They used to say
Ma'am and yes sir
For now, I'm going to find
Buttons for my
Dad's old used shirt
[Chorus]
Fitted shirt
Fitted shirt
[Verse 2]
Been looking so long now
And no one's seen and no one heard
But when I go out tonight
I'm going to put on a fitted shirt
