Guy Clark



Well he's eight years old he's got a flour sack cape tied all around his neck

He's climbing up on top the garage figurin' what the heck

He screws his courage up so darn tight, that the whole thing come unwound

He got a runnin' start and bless his heart, he headed for the ground



Chorus

'Cause he's one of those who knows his life

Is just a leap of faith

Gotta' spread your arms and hold your breath

And always trust your cape



Well he's all grown up, he's got a flour sack cape, tied all around his dream

He's full of piss and vinegar, ah, he's bustin' at the seams

He licks his finger and checks the wind, it's gonna be do or die

He wasn't scared of nothin', boys, he was pretty sure he could fly



Chorus



Now he's old and grey with a flour sack cape, tied all around his head

And he's still jumpin' off the garage and will be til he's dead

All these years the people said the fool was actin' like a kid

And since he didn't know he couldn't fly, well of course he did



Chorus
