You Can’t Change Who You Are – A Heartfelt Dedication to My Dad, Jack Kiley 🎶

About this video

This one is dedicated to my dad, the late Jack Kiley. The song was inspired by one of his "Jack Kileyisms". One day I overheard him on the phone arguing with a builder about money that the builder owed him. This particular builder had had a very Italian sounding name. When he married a JAP, she made him change his name to Grant. My father, in his anger said "You can change your name, but you can't change you." Beautiful...


From my CD, I'm No Kid, Goddamit..., recorded in 1994. Produced by Charlie Jones. Mixed, mastered, and...never pressed.
