Aaron Tessis - Mr. No Complaints

I know you always hear me though you can't always make out the words
You were a simple man, no less honoured than you deserved
It's a great thing to see somebody's mood so easily curved
Your children's happiness meant your peace in the world
Hey Mr. No Complaints, how you hanging in?
You used to hand me a twenty and say, "I wish I had more to give
'Cause I know you're gonna win
I've got all my money on you kid!"
When I was a boy you used to take me for a drive
You could barely see over the wheel as other cars kept flying by
You would curse out your damn words, I thought we were going to die
I was scared out of my gourd, my last ticket to ride
Hey Mr. No Complaints, how you hanging in?
You used to hand me a twenty and say, "I wish I had more to give
'Cause I know you're gonna win
I've got all my money on you kid!"
When he would talk about love there was only one of his life
He cared for and worshipped the girl he proudly called his wife
I found my ideals about love in the honour of his fight
He stood by the ones that he loved and by him we stood tight
You were taken away
You were taken away
And it rained, it rained, it rained, it rained
You were taken away
With a smile on your face
You were taken away
Hey Mr. No Complaints, how you hanging in?
You used to hand me a twenty and say, "I wish I had more to give
'Cause I know you're gonna win
I've got all my money on you kid!"
Hey Mr. No Complaints, how you hanging in?
I never cared for your twenties or that you said you weren't rich
What you gave can't be measured or billed
You left all your love in the will
