Adam Faith - Hand Me Down Things Lyrics

Lyrics Hand Me Down Things - Adam Faith




When I was young times were hard
And money was hard to get
The world that I knew was my backyard
The folks were poor and in debt
Of all us kids I was the youngest one
And always the last in line
The toys I got and the clothes I wore
Were theirs before they were mine
Hand me down things
Only hand me down things
A rocking horse, an old patched coat
And a banjo without any strings
Second hand shoes and a hand me down song
Times were bad and all we had
Were these few old hand me down things
The rocking horse is broken now
The coat is tattered and torn
The banjo has taken it's final bow
The shoes are old and so worn
But the song we sang is sweeter still
Though now the old folks are gone
I remember the words an' I always will
The melodies lingering on
Mm-mm-mm, mm-mm-mm-mm-mm
A rocking horse, an old patched coat
And a banjo without any strings
Second hand shoes and a hand me down song
Times were bad and all we had
Were these few old hand me down things
Just a few old hand me down things
Precious hand me down things
