Daddy Did

(album: Drew Parker - 2018)

Every can of Skoal
Wears a whole
In my back pocket
Ain't a yellow light
I don't try
Take off like a rocket
My mama said she fell In love with a Born to Run Springsteen
Every night he holds her tight, after he prays for me

Because boys won't just be boys
Making stupid choices or decisions
Living with the consequences
Boys won't just be boys
Raising a whole lot of noise, with their opinion
Talk and never listen
But boys will always be boys who grow up to be kids
Doing what their daddy did

Callused hands
Hold a can
Of Bud light a little better
When she's all one
Crying on the phone
Load up and just go get her
If you're gonna have to talk it out
Well you might as well go fishing
Learn to show forgiveness
And be humble with your living

Because boys won't just be boys
Making stupid choices or decisions
Living with the consequences
Boys won't just be boys
Raising a whole lot of noise, with their opinion
Talk and never listen
But boys will always be boys who grow up to be kids
Doing what their daddy did

I always said, "When I grow up, I wanna be like him"
Gonna live the life I live
Doing what my Dady did

Because boys won't just be boys
Making stupid choices or decisions
Living with the consequences
Boys won't just be boys
Raising a whole lot of noise, with their opinion
Talk and never listen
But boys will always be boys who grow up to be kids
Doing what their daddy did

Oh oh yeah
Doing what their daddy did
Oh just doing what their daddy did
