Hat Lyrics
[00:04.03] Here we go
[00:04.61]
[00:15.47] Hat was the first word that my Lucy said
[00:19.77] So much more than some thing that you just wear on your head
[00:25.97] Shade from the sun, cover from snow and rain
[00:30.22] Keep your big secret under it, I mean your brain
[00:35.85] It's thrown in the air
[00:40.33] It's kicked and stomped in the dust
[00:46.77] Tip it if you will or doff it if you must
[00:51.62] It's Orchestral, Mountain, Bonner, Grews, and Creek
[00:56.46] There's the crown and the band and the brim and the peak
[01:02.38] Pull out a rabbit, put in all the names
[01:06.54] There remain a man of mystery who's losing his hair
[01:12.19] The good wear the white ones
[01:16.66] It's black for the bad guys
[01:22.86] Jack Abromoff the thing down over your eyes
[01:28.01] She didn't say "Ma", she didn't say "Pa"
[01:33.19] She said the first thing important she saw
[01:38.68] Could've been "Juice", might've been "Cat"
[01:43.50] Why in the world did Lucy say "Hat"?
[01:49.57]
[02:15.51] Oh-oh-oh-oh
[02:22.50] Why in the world did Lucy say "Hat"?
[02:27.03] She didn't say "Car", she didn't say "Star"
[02:32.69] Those are as important as any words are
[02:38.27] Ernie and Burt and the Count who's a bat
[02:43.13] She didn't say those, instead she chose "Hat"
[02:50.84] You can pass it around or throw it down in defeat
[02:55.96] There's the man on the mound and the cop on the beat
[03:01.40] Remove it in church, sayin' "Say can you see"
[03:06.52] Uncover your head for God and Liberty
[03:11.45] It's so much more than one thing
[03:15.80] Yeah, that you wear on your head
[03:22.75] Hat was the first word my Lucy said
[03:27.13] It looks good on a hook
[03:31.47] Oh, it's bad luck on a bed
[03:38.41] Hat was the first word my Lucy said
[03:43.33] Hat was the first word my Lucy said
[03:48.62]
[00:04.61]
[00:15.47] Hat was the first word that my Lucy said
