Years before I was born father told this to me

It was one christmas morning in 73

There was one lonely gift nestled under the tree

My grandfather said don't touch my

He said boy listen close I am saying this once

These were worn by my parents and their parent's parent's

Now they're yours but be sure to guard them with your life

He said don't ever let them

Touch

My

Clogs

You can take my cash

You could burn my house

You could force feed trash

I'd let you kick my balls

While I chewed on glass

Before I even thought about letting someone

Touch

My

Clogs

You'll have to take my life

Have to steal my dog

Have to beat my wife

You'll have to kill my mom

With a rusty knife

You'll have to BREAK MY LEGS

Before I ever let you

Touch

My

Clogs

Father said you're my son

So I'll tell you the truth

I wore clogs without socks

For the bulk of my youth

Now these clogs

They are yours

Protect them with your life

I pray you never let them

Touch

Your

Clogs

You can slap my wrists

I'd let you shave my head

Let you wax my pits

I'd even butt chug bleach

While you twist my nips

And after all of that

I still wouldn't let you

Touch

My

Clogs

You could eat my lunch

You can knock me out

With a one inch punch

And make me drink your sweat

From a dirty sponge

You'd have to shoot me dead

Before I ever let you touch my clogs

It's my purpose in life

To keep them safe until my child is at least 25

Then I will pass the clogs to them and they'll wear them with pride

And every single day from then they'll make sure no one has

Touched

Their

Clogs

They're the one thing I love

The only thing that makes me sure there's a god up above

Those wooden clogs on my feet yeah they fit like a glove

And I would give up everything before I ever let you

Touch

My

Clogs

Now I lay me down to sleep

I pray the lord my clogs to keep

If I should die before I wake

I pray the lord my clogs to take

You can take my cash

You could burn my house

You could force feed trash

I'd let you kick my balls

While I chewed on glass

Before I even thought

About letting someone

Touch

My

Clogs

You'll have to take my life

Have to steal my dog

Have to beat my wife

You'll have to kill my mom

With a rusty knife

You'll have to break my legs

Before I ever let you

Touch

My
