Hand Me Down Lyrics

    Someday they'll find your small town world on a big town avenue
    Gonna make you like the way they talk when they're talking to you
    Gonna make you break out of the shell cause they tell you to
    Gonna make you like the way they lie better than the truth
    They'll tell you everything you wanted someone else to say
    They're gonna break your heart, yeah

    [Chorus]

    From what I've seen
    You're just a one more hand me down
    Cause no one's tried to give you what you need
    So lay all your troubles down
    I am with you now

    Somebody ought to take you in
    Try to make you love again
    Try to make you like the way they feel
    When they're under your skin
    Never once did think they'd lie when they're holding you
    You wonder why they haven't called
    When they said they'd call you
    You start to wonder if you're ever gonna make it by
    You'll start to think you were born blind

    [Chorus]

    From what I've seen
    You're just a one more hand me down
    Cause no one's tried to give you what you need
    So lay all your troubles down
    I am with you now

    I'm here for the hard times
    The straight to your heart times
    Whenever it ain't easy
    You can stand up against me
    And maybe rely on me
    And cry on me, yeah
    Oh no, no, no

    Some day they'll open up your world
    Shake it down on a drawing board
    Do their best to change you
    They still can't erase you

    [Chorus]

    From what I've seen
    You're just a one more hand me down
    Cause no one's tried to give you what you need
    So lay all your troubles down
    I am with you now

    Lay them down on me
    Oh yeah
    You're just one more hand me down
    And all those nots don't give you what you need
    So lay all your troubles down...on me
