Hand Me Downs
She raised us good,
She raised us right.
Wasn't easy to
Keep us all in line.
When hard times fell
It never showed.
My mother is the strongest girl I know.
He worked all day
Till his hands were sore.
With pride in his eyes
And a heart full of joy.
Day after day
And he never moaned.
My father is the toughest guy I know.
Hand me down
All that you are to me.
Hand me down
All that I hope to be.
Hand me downs,
Hand me downs
Mean the world to me.
She's been through
More than most of us.
With a heart of gold
That's seen too much.
My sister is the bravest girl I know.
He's a quiet guy,
The old fashioned type.
Someone to trust.
Handy in a fight.
A friend I can call
When I need it most.
My brother is the nicest guy I know.
Hand me down
All that you are to me.
Hand me down
All that I hope to be.
Hand me downs,
Hand me downs
Mean the world to me.
Mean the world to me.
She's a gentle soul
With the kindest ways.
An open book
page after page.
When I need picked up
I know just where to go.
My other sister is the sweetest girl I know.
Hand me down
All that you are to me.
Hand me down
All that I hope to be.
Hand me downs,
Hand me downs
Mean the world to me.
Mean the world to me.
She raised us right.
Wasn't easy to
Keep us all in line.
When hard times fell
It never showed.
My mother is the strongest girl I know.
He worked all day
Till his hands were sore.
With pride in his eyes
And a heart full of joy.
Day after day
And he never moaned.
My father is the toughest guy I know.
Hand me down
All that you are to me.
Hand me down
All that I hope to be.
Hand me downs,
Hand me downs
Mean the world to me.
She's been through
More than most of us.
With a heart of gold
That's seen too much.
My sister is the bravest girl I know.
He's a quiet guy,
The old fashioned type.
Someone to trust.
Handy in a fight.
A friend I can call
When I need it most.
My brother is the nicest guy I know.
Hand me down
All that you are to me.
Hand me down
All that I hope to be.
Hand me downs,
Hand me downs
Mean the world to me.
Mean the world to me.
She's a gentle soul
With the kindest ways.
An open book
page after page.
When I need picked up
I know just where to go.
My other sister is the sweetest girl I know.
Hand me down
All that you are to me.
Hand me down
All that I hope to be.
Hand me downs,
Hand me downs
Mean the world to me.
Mean the world to me.
