lyrics

Wiseman., wiseman, drive your Toyota
With your daughter in the back in a plain white dress - whoaah
Wiseman, wiseman, drive her to the alter
Down a barren dusty track through fields that you both know

Wiseman, wiseman, stub another cigarette
Into the pavement by the big church door - whoaah
Wiseman, wiseman, under your patent leather soles
So everbody knows she's leaving home

She's been up all night
Her mind's been racin'
With thoughts of you

You've been up all night
An' your old bones aching, but now
It's a sunny day and they feel new

And she'll still love you
She'll still love you
She'll still love you
Yeah

Wiseman, wiseman, drive your Toyota
Back along the track to the place that you can't leave
Wiseman, wiseman your willpower falters
And the skies so full of dust you can hardly breathe

You'll be up all night
An' your mind racin'
With thoughts of her and her old place
But oh! a sunny day and you'll come through

And she'll still love you
She'll still love you
She'll still love you
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
