Good Ol' Man

I'm cleanin' up them dirty words that I say these days
Showin' up to church a lot more on Sunday
Workin' on bad habit breakin'
Cuttin' back on Copenhagen
Little less gas, little more brake in my Chevrolet
Whatever it takes 'cause
I got a gift from God sittin' in the back seat
And I'ma need to be a little better
If he's gonna wanna be like me

I'm just a good ol' boy
Tryin' to be a good ol' man
Out here learnin' on the fly
Tryin' to do the best I can
To raise him up right
No sir, yes, ma'am
I'm just a good ol' boy
Tryin' to be a good ol' man
Yes, I am, mm yeah

Gonna be a lot of learnin' in between them inches on that doorframe
I don't know a lot about a lot, but I know I could teach him a few things
How to swim, how to fish, how to drive a stick
Just like my daddy taught me
And he'll know how to say he's sorry
'Cause he'll hear that from me

I'm just a good ol' boy (good ol' boy)
Tryin' to be a good ol' man
Out here learnin' on the fly
Tryin' to do the best I can
To raise him up right (up right)
Lord knows I am
I'm just a good ol' boy
Tryin' to be a good ol' man (good ol' man)

Oh, I'm tryin', oh I'm tryin', oh I'm tryin'
Oh, I'm tryin' to be a good ol' man (good ol' man)
Oh, I'm tryin', oh I'm tryin', oh I'm tryin'
Oh, I'm tryin' to be a good ol' man

Makin' a man out of him
Is makin' a man out of me
Makin' a man out of him
So one day he'll be
Another good ol' boy, yeah

Just a good ol' boy
Tryin' to be a good old man
Out here learnin' on the fly (learnin' on the fly)
Tryin' to do the best I can (yeah, mama)
To raise him up right (up right)
Lord knows I am (knows I am)
I'm just a good ol' boy
Tryin' to be a good ol' man (only got two hands)
Yes, I am

Oh, I'm tryin', oh I'm tryin', oh I'm tryin'
Oh, I'm tryin' to be a good ol' man (good ol' man)
Oh, I'm tryin', oh I'm tryin', oh I'm tryin'
Oh, I'm tryin' to be a good ol' man (I'm a good ol' man)
Yes, I am

Oh, I'm tryin', oh I'm tryin', oh I'm tryin'
Oh, I'm tryin' to be a good ol' man (good ol' man)
Oh, I'm tryin', oh I'm tryin', oh I'm tryin'
Oh, I'm tryin' to be a good ol' man (mm, yeah)
