Your Poppa Don't Mind — Supertramp

Give it a whirl, give it a try Why don't you sleep out, start living high? You're on your own, you make your bed No time for wasting, just look ahead

Your poppa don't mind what you do or say You can't surprise him anymore He's got a reputation that he don't look back Your poppa don't mind at all

He's getting old, it's getting late It's soon tomorrow, so celebrate Bring it out and go to town Before you're thinkin' of settling down

Your poppa don't mind what you do or say You can't surprise him anymore He don't believe in heaven like a good man should Your poppa don't mind at all

Finding out is half the fun And when you find out don't try to run And if you know then you've begun But if you don't know it's still to come

Your poppa don't mind what you do or say You can't surprise him anymore He talks about his women and his old school's tie Your poppa don't mind at all

Your poppa don't mind what you do or say You can't surprise him anymore He don't believe in heaven like a good man should Your poppa don't mind at all Your poppa don't mind at all Your poppa don't mind at all
