Hand Me Downs - Arkells

You went through five schools before you were 17

I can only guess what those brown eyes have seen

If we're just a blank state mixed

With a little bit of DNA

And those weekend visits when he'd show up late

When I feel helpless I see you smiling back at me

Like every little thing is gonna be okay

Ya you're a tough kid way tougher than me

I'll put a bet on you any day

Ooh when your head gets dizzy and you can't get right

Ooh but ya push on through don't be denied

Shake off those ghosts in every corner of this town

From the clothes on your back to the color of your eyes

Ain't no shame in some hand me downs

Ain't no shame in some hand me downs

No it never made sense

But it's the only thing that you know

That resentment well it comes and goes

In your daddy's defense he never really stood a change

You should see where he came from

And his brothers ended up

We get all stuck but babe

You've been acting reckless to deal with the pain

I just hope you don't get carried away

And you wear this necklace from graduation day

You said I'll wear this chain 'cause I'm breaking it

Yeah I'll wear this chain 'cause I'm breaking it

Oooh when your head gets dizzy and you can't get right

Ooh but ya push on through don't be denied

Shake off those ghosts in every corner of this town

From the clothes on your back to the colour of your eyes

Ain't no shame in some hand me downs

Ain't no shame in some hand me downs

First of the month gets you stressed out

And moving trucks bring you right back

Deep in the cut there's a voice that's calling out saying

It's out of reach I gotta keep chasing

It's out of reach I gotta keep chasing

It's out of reach I gotta keep chasing

It's out of reach I gotta keep chasing

Oooh when your head gets dizzy

And you can't get right

Oooh but ya push on through don't be denied

Shake off those ghosts in every corner of this town

From the clothes on your back to the colour of your eyes

From the clothes on your back to the colour of your eyes

From the clothes on your back to the colour of your eyes

Ain't no shame in some hand me downs

Ain't no shame in some hand me downs

Ain't no shame in some hand me downs

Ain't no shame in some hand me downs

Ain't no shame in some hand me downs
