He Didn't Do

(专辑： Life's Too Short - 2023)

Them Wrangler jeans, Copenhagen ring
Daddy packed one every morning
He paid the bills, working in the field
Tired as hell, but he didn't show it
Always putting food on the table
Making sure we were able to live a damn good life
Back when I was kid, I admired what he did
But as I get older I find

He never missed that Sunday service
Never earned a thing without hard working
Never made my momma cry
Never scared to say what was on his mind
Never let us do without
Wouldn't let his age start to wear him down
Never listened to nobody telling him no
But brother I'm telling you
He taught me a lot with all he did
But I learned everything from all he didn't do

Yeah, he spent the time teaching me to drive
That 'ole five speed Chevrolet
Daylight to dark out in the yard
Working on my baseball swing
Watching him, I'm betting that he thought
Those lessons were all I'd need to get by
But when I look back in my mind

He never missed that Sunday service
Never earned a thing without hard working
Never made my momma cry
Never scared to say what was on his mind
Never let us do without
Wouldn't let his age start to wear him down
Never listened to nobody telling him no
But brother I'm telling you
He taught me a lot with all he did
But I learned everything from all he didn't do
Never one for dressing up
But I know he will someday
We'll gather round that dirt and stone
And hear that preacher say

He never missed that Sunday service
Never earned a thing without hard working
Never made my momma cry
Never scared to say what was on his mind
Never let us do without
Wouldn't let his age start to wear him down
Never listened to nobody telling him no
But brother I'm telling you
He taught me a lot with all he did
But I learned everything from all he didn't do
From all he didn't do
