Dirty Hands And Dirty Faces lyrics

[Verse 1]
Dirty hands, dirty faces
What am I gonna do about you?
You've been out playing in those
Forbidden places
So run along and wash 'em up
Your supper's getting cool

[Verse 2]
Hurry up, slow down
How can you be so clumsy?
Didn't you see it standing there?
Go on now answer me before I get angry
And go to your room
And shut the door and see if I care

[Chorus]
Yes but someday
When we're standing eye to eye
And your trucks and your guns are all behind
Well I hope you'll be more kind
And understanding with your daddy
Than I was with mine

[Verse 3]
The day to day, it slips away
You're in diapers and then you're dancing
And the music that you hear is not for me
Sometimes I forget about
The things that really matter
I'm holding tighter, you're running faster
As you struggle to be free
[Chorus]
Yes but someday
When we're standing eye to eye
And your trucks and your guns are all behind
Well I hope you'll be more kind
And understanding with your daddy
Than I was with mine
So on your way, my little one
You've got some dreams to find
Still I hope you'll be more kind and understanding with your daddy
Than I was with mine
