Give it a whirl, give it a try

Why don't you sleep out, start living high?

You're on your own, you make your bed

No time for wasting, just look ahead

Your poppa don't mind what you do or say

You can't surprise him anymore

He's got a reputation that he don't look back

Your poppa don't mind at all

He's getting old, it's getting late

It's soon tomorrow, so celebrate

Bring it out and go to town

Before you're thinkin' of settling down

Your poppa don't mind what you do or say

You can't surprise him anymore

He don't believe in heaven like a good man should

Your poppa don't mind at all

Finding out is half the fun

And when you find out don't try to run

And if you know then you've begun

But if you don't know it's still to come

Your poppa don't mind what you do or say

You can't surprise him anymore

He talks about his women and his old school's tie

Your poppa don't mind at all

Your poppa don't mind what you do or say

You can't surprise him anymore

He don't believe in heaven like a good man should

Your poppa don't mind at all

Your poppa don't mind at all

Your poppa don't mind at all
