Man of the House
Daddy was a preacher
Mama was a leaver
They both raised me to believe
In the things that I can't see
Sneakin' cross the border
Trying to find quarters
On the floor for gasoline
Mama cryin' in the front seat
So I became the man
Of the house we used to have
Nothing but the headlights
Straight ahead
And I still see the light
Shining in my mamas eyes
As she turned to me and said
Love is all that matters in the end
I wonder how she felt
Clicking my seat belt
Saying you're safe now baby
Everything's gonna be alright
She said
Some men'll hurt you
Some of them desert you
But a real one knows how to fight
And when to cry
So I became the man
Of the house we used to have
Nothing but the headlights straight ahead
And I still see the light
Shining in my mamas eyes
As she turned to me and said
Love is all that matters in the end
Love
Is all that matters
Daddy was a preacher
Mama was a leaver
They both raised me to believe
In the things that I can't see
So I became the man
Of the house we used to have
Nothing but the headlights straight ahead
And I still see the light
Shining in my mamas eyes
As she turned to me and said
Love is all that matters in the end
Yeah love is all that matters
Love is all that matters
My mama said
Now you're the man of the house
Oh
Yeah, yeah
And my mama said
Now you're the man of the house
Mama was a leaver
They both raised me to believe
In the things that I can't see
Sneakin' cross the border
Trying to find quarters
On the floor for gasoline
Mama cryin' in the front seat
So I became the man
Of the house we used to have
Nothing but the headlights
Straight ahead
And I still see the light
Shining in my mamas eyes
As she turned to me and said
Love is all that matters in the end
I wonder how she felt
Clicking my seat belt
Saying you're safe now baby
Everything's gonna be alright
She said
Some men'll hurt you
Some of them desert you
But a real one knows how to fight
And when to cry
So I became the man
Of the house we used to have
Nothing but the headlights straight ahead
And I still see the light
Shining in my mamas eyes
As she turned to me and said
Love is all that matters in the end
Love
Is all that matters
Daddy was a preacher
Mama was a leaver
They both raised me to believe
In the things that I can't see
So I became the man
Of the house we used to have
Nothing but the headlights straight ahead
And I still see the light
Shining in my mamas eyes
As she turned to me and said
Love is all that matters in the end
Yeah love is all that matters
Love is all that matters
My mama said
Now you're the man of the house
Oh
Yeah, yeah
And my mama said
Now you're the man of the house
