High fool

You wore the sweater
And it must have been wool
And I watched the sweater
And must have been the fool
You jumped and kicked and spun
I watched and was quickly undone
It was football night
In an autumn chill
I was in the band
Watching from a nearby hill
I heard you call out to the crowd
Singing a fighting song proud
With energy to spare
And I kept wondering how
To get you out of there
Hot dogs and soda pop
It’s better that we didn’t stop
Scoreboard flashing neon bright
You wore the sweater
And it always seemed tight
And I watched the sweater
And everything seemed right.
