I had little cry, my eyes started to blink
Fourteen years old and hard to the core
It's gone, gone, gone, gone
My hands was cut, my uncle says, "What's up?
“You got steel son” my uncle's talking
The baseball cap was a ghost, this real to me
I can't get it back
So I took my fourteen years up to bed
And I don't want to have to meet your Mama's eye
I can't get it back
I made choice, it was like snap
Oh, smash, there goes my baseball cap
So try and listen hard before you fall into the trap
But enough is enough, don't loose your life over nothing
Say goodnight to your Ma and think again"
Drink your drink, let the words sink in
Sounds absurd, but I had the love in his voice to me
It's gone, gone, gone, gone
It's gone, gone, gone, gone
Oh, smash, there goes my baseball cap
I can measure it, treasure it and have my leisure
Oh, smash, there goes my baseball cap
Scuffling in the street is no way to die
I can't get it back
Of making war over a baseball cap"
I can't get it back
Oh, smash, there goes my baseball cap
Oh, smash. there goes my baseball cap
I said, “All my tears and let my fourteen years [incomprehensible]”
Everything he said taking root in my head
It's gone, gone, gone, gone
I never see my hat no more
Oh, smash, there goes my baseball cap
"Sometimes you have to let the world know you're not bluffing
Jumped me from behind at least three, maybe four
Sit down, take five and let me look at your knees
Let me guess, your clothes are in a mess, you're in distress
Your still alive son, please take it easy"
I can't get it back
I sat back, had a few uncle [incomprehensible] to drink
It's gone, gone, gone, gone
It's gone, gone, gone, gone
Oh, smash, there goes my baseball cap
I can't get it back
'Cause what occurred from his words to me
I can't get it back
Sit down with those who mean most to me
It's gone, gone, gone, gone
"Take the champion to walk and keep walking
It's gone, gone, gone, gone
I'm walking home making plans for war
What's a cap when I got something real like that?
Oh, smash, there goes my baseball cap
