Daddy's Son

Well, I'm my daddy's son
If you need to blame someone
Don't blame me and momma
For all those things I'd done
But like that old last word
I can't help but to make it mine
And if you say a quarter
I'll say a nickel and two dimes

Oh, it's in my blood, the fighting, cussing, hold my girl real tight
To find the underdog, and make him strong, so he can be alright
Oh, and I walk straight 'til it gets late
And the beer swerves me to the right
So if you're looking for where I get it from
I'm my daddy's son

Growing up, I didn't get it
Man, I thought we couldn't be more different
I was troubled by your tongue
Always wished you would a-begging
Acting like I didn't need
Always pushing you away
If I'm being honest
Dad, I'm so glad you stayed

Somehow that anyone had advice
Slowly crept into my life
Funny how some things you just can't teach
All I needed was a glance at your two hardworking hands
Then the rest started burning inside of me

And oh, it's in my blood, the fighting, cussing, hold my girl real tight
To find the underdog, and make him strong, so he can be alright
Oh, and I walk straight 'til it gets late
And the beer swerves me to the right
So if you're looking for where I get it from
I'm my daddy's son

And I'll give you this name
I know right now, you don't feel the same
I promise son, you'll look back one day and then you'll say

Oh, it's in my blood, the fighting, cussing, hold my girl real tight
To find the underdog, and make him strong, so he can be alright
Oh, and I walk straight 'til it gets late
And the beer swerves me to the right
So if you're looking for where I get it from
Oh, if you're looking for where I get it from
I'm my daddy's son
