[Verse 1] Hey dad I’m sorry to say That some mice ate a hole in your Marlboro Jean Jacket. I looked in the pocket that I was told, saw one scurry away. I couldn’t smack it. Jackie from the store told me to tell you it’s been much too long She still gets up and moves around when the radio plays y’all’s song. [Prechorus] I’m sorry I couldn’t save it I know how long it took To save the packs of red and gold And wear in that weathered look [Chorus] Hey dad I’m sorry to say That some mice ate a hole in your Marlboro Jean Jacket. Hey dad I’m sorry to say That some mice ate a hole in your Marlboro Jean Jacket. [Verse 2] Came home for Christmas and choked on the smoke from the cheap knockoff cigarettes you have to buy now because you are broke. I know she’s gone and it ain’t been long but the his and her’s set has been chew clean through. I’ll move the golden patch to a box inside the hatch that I think maybe the mice can’t get to. [Prechorus] I’m sorry I couldn’t save it I know how long it took To save the packs of red and gold And wear in that weathered look [Chorus] Hey dad I’m sorry to say That some mice ate a hole in your Marlboro Jean Jacket. Hey dad I’m sorry to say That some mice ate a hole in your Marlboro Jean Jacket. [Chorus] Hey dad I’m sorry to say That some mice ate a hole in your Marlboro Jean Jacket. Hey dad I’m sorry to say That some mice ate a hole in your Marlboro Jean Jacket. [final Chorus - outro] Hey dad I’m sorry to say That some mice ate a hole in your Marlboro Jean Jacket. Hey dad I’m sorry to say That some mice ate a hole in your Marlboro Jean Jacket.
