Papa Don't Know Best

I heard about a kid

Who wanted to be the king Dreaming of a guitar

More than a big black car

It was a long time ago now It was a long time ago now...

But his papa said to him, his papa said to him

You better get your silly head out of the clouds, son And his mama said to him, his mama said to him Papa Don’t Know Best

Oh but this kid

He said 'you better listen'

Got golden melodies

That sound like the summer breeze

It was a long time ago now It was a long time ago now..

But his papa said to him, his papa said to him You better get your feet back on the ground, now And his mama said to him, his mama said to him Papa Don’t Know Best

This kid shook his head And climbed up on the stage And when he played

His kingdom was made

It was a long time ago now It was a long time ago now..

Papa listen please, oh papa listen please

I ain't ever gonna wear a suit and tie, no

Papa listen please, papa listen please

You better get your silly head out of the clouds now Mama listen please, mama listen please

This time, Papa don't know best
