I'm Tired Of Wearing Buckskin Lyrics - Hall & Oates

My wife said, "Dear, youre almost thirty-three 

Dont you think its time to change your ways? 

The kids are starvin, the dog is barkin 

We havent had a meal in three days" 

"No one wants to hear a musician play 

When they know hes past his prime 

Everybody knows when its his turn to quit 

And I think youve reached your time" 

Im tired of wearing buckskin 

I think I'll trade my Levis for some new Bermuda shorts 

'Cause my wife and kids dont wanna see their daddy 

Be a hippie no more 

I said, "Listen ma 

Im gonna get a job and maybe go back to school 

I ain't gonna be mad or bitter toward life 

'Cause it treated me so cruel, cruel, cruel, cruel" 

"I think Ill even give up smokin that week 

'Cause it boggles up my mind 

Im gonna start my life all over again 

Gonna leave that past behind" 

Im tired of wearing buckskin 

I think Ill trade my Levis for some new Bermuda shorts 

'Cause my wife and kids dont wanna see their daddy 

Be a hippie no more 

Im tired of wearing buckskin 

I think Ill trade my Levis for some new Bermuda shorts 

'Cause my wife and kids dont wanna see their daddy 

Be a hippie no more, no more [Incomprehensible] 

Im tired of wearing buckskin 

I think Ill trade my Levis for some new Bermuda shorts 

'Cause my wife and kids dont wanna see their daddy 

Be a hippie no more, whoa
