Lyrics
I wore my sunday best.
I wore my pride
I saw my brother in the distance
And I lowered my eyes
Wasn't it enough for him
to break my father's heart
Wasn't it enough for him
enough for him...
My brother's shirt was torn
He wore his shame
I saw my father run to meet him
but I, I cursed his name.
Wasn't it enough for me
Wasn't it enough for me
Wasn't it enough for me my father loved me
I
I walked away with my
jealous judgements on my mind
But father, father
haven't I loved you
wasn't I a good son
the good son....
I wore my sunday best
I wore my pride.
