My Old Man
Looking back
When I was growing up
How he'd guide me with his hand
I always saw
In my father's eyes
What it takes to be a man
He was dedicated to the family trust
Swore we'd never let each other down
Born a saint
Under a Southern Cross
Wandered to the Midwest skyline
For forty years
He gave his life
To his woman and his dreams
Sure, all my memories will all trace back to him
I'm gonna miss him now that he is gone
There's no love
That could ever take the place
Of me and my old man
A father's son
Is coming home to stay
To the one that understands
We'd talk it out
Or drink all night
Remember what I am
Remember my old man
Whoa-oa-oa-oa
My old man
Whoa-oa-oa, whoa-oa-oa-oa
When I was growing up
How he'd guide me with his hand
I always saw
In my father's eyes
What it takes to be a man
He was dedicated to the family trust
Swore we'd never let each other down
Born a saint
Under a Southern Cross
Wandered to the Midwest skyline
For forty years
He gave his life
To his woman and his dreams
Sure, all my memories will all trace back to him
I'm gonna miss him now that he is gone
There's no love
That could ever take the place
Of me and my old man
A father's son
Is coming home to stay
To the one that understands
We'd talk it out
Or drink all night
Remember what I am
Remember my old man
Whoa-oa-oa-oa
My old man
Whoa-oa-oa, whoa-oa-oa-oa
