Letra:
(lyrics by James Seals; music by James Seals & Dash Crofts, 1970)
From the albums DOWN HOME (1970) and SEALS AND CROFTS I AND II (1974)
The world we know is living in a hand-me-down shoe, a hand-me-down shoe
And don't you know that the shoe don't fit Maybe there's a hole in it
We can't walk so we must sit while the world goes on, and on
Living in a hand-me-down shoe
The world we know is thinking with a hand-me-down brain, hand-me-down brain
Insane because it bubbles like the rain causes puddles Maybe there's no soul to it
We can't walk so we must sit while the world goes on, and on
Living with a hand-me-down brain
Can't cha tell that everybody's leavin', dyin' everyday
Tryin' to get just anywhere as long as it's away, from the world
The world we know is living in a hand-me-down shoe, a hand-me-down shoe
And don't you know that the shoe don't fit Maybe there's a hole in it
We can't walk so we must sit while the world goes on, and on
Living in a hand-me-down shoe
From the albums DOWN HOME (1970) and SEALS AND CROFTS I AND II (1974)
The world we know is living in a hand-me-down shoe, a hand-me-down shoe
And don't you know that the shoe don't fit Maybe there's a hole in it
We can't walk so we must sit while the world goes on, and on
Living in a hand-me-down shoe
The world we know is thinking with a hand-me-down brain, hand-me-down brain
Insane because it bubbles like the rain causes puddles Maybe there's no soul to it
We can't walk so we must sit while the world goes on, and on
Living with a hand-me-down brain
Can't cha tell that everybody's leavin', dyin' everyday
Tryin' to get just anywhere as long as it's away, from the world
The world we know is living in a hand-me-down shoe, a hand-me-down shoe
And don't you know that the shoe don't fit Maybe there's a hole in it
We can't walk so we must sit while the world goes on, and on
Living in a hand-me-down shoe
