Give me everything you’ve got
I’ll take what I can get
I want to hear your story and be a part of it

Thank your father before you
His mother before him
Who would I be without you, without them?

Speak to me, speak to me, speak to me
Until your history’s no mystery to me

Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me
Until the words run dry, we’ll see eye to eye

I’ll give everything I’ve got
Please take what I can give
I want you to hear my story and be a part of it

Thank my father before me
His mother before him
Who would I be without you, without them?
