Lyrics/Text:
I'm a little boy with glasses
The one they call the geek
A little girl who never smiles
'Cause I've got braces on my teeth
And I know how it feels
To cry myself to sleep.
I'm that kid on every playground
Who's always chosen last
A single teenage mother
Tryin' to overcome my past
You don't have to be my friend
Is it too much to ask?
Don't laugh at me, don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes we're all the same
Someday we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me.
I'm the cripple on the corner
You pass me on the street
I wouldn't be out here beggin'
If I had enough to eat
And don't think that I don't notice
That our eyes never meet.
I lost my wife and little boy
Someone crossed that yellow line
The day we laid 'em in the ground
Is the day I lost my mind
Right now I'm down to holdin'
This little cardboard sign.
Don't laugh at me, don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes we're all the same
Someday we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me.
I'm fat, I'm thin, I'm short, I'm tall
I'm deaf, I'm blind, hey aren't we all?
Don't laugh at me, don't call me names
Don't get your pleasure from my pain
In God's eyes we're all the same
Someday we'll all have perfect wings
Don't laugh at me.
If you have ever been marginalized, scorned or just ignored because of who you are this song should pull your heart from your chest. You can feel Seeger's experiences coming through. For those of us that have been there and fight our way back every time society or fate knocks us down, thank you Doug Seeger's.
Simply stunned. I have no words. Thank you Scott.
I think he is a treasure. Such a beautiful song. Beautiful singer. So true his words.
As an old singer/songwriter myself, I gotta tell ya, this is one Helluva good tune. And he has seen everything in it from the vantage point of one of those being laughed at. He didn't think about it driving past some guy with a sign. He was the guy with the sign, and that means a lot, don'tcha think?
THAT WHAT COUNTRY OR BLUE,IS ALL ABOUT,IT COME FROM THE HEART AND DOUG IS THE PERFECT VOISE TO DO IT,LOVE YOU MAN YOU ARE TRUE IN YOUR SONG THANK.
I ain't laughin' brother...God Bless You! Peace
Très beau! Magifique! Superbe! Wonderful song and so truth. Don't laugh at me!... Ouf! Good reason for singing!
Real Country. Singing from life experiences. Original and sincere. Go Doug Go.
Skön tänkvärd låt....han kan allt vad gäller känslor den mannen. En eloge också till filmaren. Kram Doug !!

This song is great. Should have been on the album. I love Angie´s song also very much.
Snygg filmning bra ljud, och ett bra porträtt av den riktiga Doug i ett bra arrangemang, och en "snygg" kamera i vinjetten

Nice job, and I'm sure his experiences add to the feel he has singing it...but this is an older song-not his.
No truer song has ever been written
:)
No. It's about bullying.
I love this guy but the teeth hurt his signing.
