[Verse 1]
I don't need no one's opinion
On the matter concerning my dress
I was raised in a clinic down in Oklahoma
There were many things I did not possess
I never complained, because my father said
"Son you'll get your chance before you're my age"
Then he took me upstairs and gave me this suit
Written all over his face
[Chorus]
He said, "Others may come and others may go
But that suit will be around wherever you're goin'"
Three button hand me down
Three button hand me down
[Verse 2]
I had my fair share of neat women
But they came between me and my suit
That was a filly from Boston, a barmaid from Houston
Not forgetting the one in Detroit
They said, "We like you boy and we think you're sweet
But can't you lose your suit?"
I said, "No, you can't do that to me"
I remember what my father said:
