Like My Old Man
i'm stubborn
i'm reckless
but i got a heart the size of Texas
i dont talk to much
but i'll say what needs to be said
but most of the time
there aint too much going on inside my head
oh
the more i look back
from then to now
its crazy how
far i've come
all the stupid things i've done
but its made me who i am
so i'd do it all again
i know i've still got a while to go
but i'm in control
i aint afraid to take a stand
its crazy how much i'm like my old man
i drink too much
and smoke more than i should
i know the bar life all too well
i've talked to Jesus
and i've danced with the devil in hell
i've broke a few hearts
and asked for a new start
oh
the more i look back
from then to now
its crazy how
far i've come
all the stupid things i've done
but its made me who i am
so i'd do it all again
i know i've still got a while to go
but i'm in control
i aint afraid to take a stand
its crazy how much i'm like my old man
aint it funny the way things turn out
if you would have asked me years ago
i wouldn't think i'd be here now
but i'm proud
the more i look back
from then to now
its crazy how
far i've come
all the stupid things i've done
but its made me who i am
so i'd do it all again
i know i've still got a while to go
but i'm in control
