I wear it everywhere I go,
In the sun or in the snow.
It changes colors every day.
I wear it to sleep, I wear it when I play.
It's never too big, it's never too small.
It keeps me from not wearing anything at all.
Sometimes it has crazy symbols and letters on it.
Sometimes it looks so cool everybody wants it.
It changes colors like my mood.
It keeps my body from being nude.
I wear it in blue, yellow, and green,
Sometimes in red when I'm feeling mean.
It keeps me cool, it keeps me warm.
In the shower is the only time it's not worn.
It can be filled with sweat or dirt,
But I'll always love my shirt.
