Fate
Back in my old Kentucky town
I met a man who was broken down
I asked him how this came to be
He looked me in the eye and fell to his knees
The tears welled up in his eyes
My story's the same as lots of other guys
My life was all about me
I didn't pay attention to my family
It's now that I pay the price
So son please listen to my advice
Love them while you can
The love you give is the measure of a man
Don't wait till it's too late
Or you're looking at your fate
Chills ran up and down my spine
This could be my story further down the line
I knew that I was guilty too of this kind of behavior
With the kids and you
Time to take a long look at me
Get myself toge[C]ther and change my destiny
I'll love them while I can
The love I'll give will be the measure of this man
I'm not gonna hesitate
It doesn't have to be my fate
If you're like me
Run home to your family and
Love them while you can
The love you give is the measure of a man
Don't wait till it's too late
It doesn't have to be your fate
Don't wait till it's too late
It doesn't have to be your fate
I met a man who was broken down
I asked him how this came to be
He looked me in the eye and fell to his knees
The tears welled up in his eyes
My story's the same as lots of other guys
My life was all about me
I didn't pay attention to my family
It's now that I pay the price
So son please listen to my advice
Love them while you can
The love you give is the measure of a man
Don't wait till it's too late
Or you're looking at your fate
Chills ran up and down my spine
This could be my story further down the line
I knew that I was guilty too of this kind of behavior
With the kids and you
Time to take a long look at me
Get myself toge[C]ther and change my destiny
I'll love them while I can
The love I'll give will be the measure of this man
I'm not gonna hesitate
It doesn't have to be my fate
If you're like me
Run home to your family and
Love them while you can
The love you give is the measure of a man
Don't wait till it's too late
It doesn't have to be your fate
Don't wait till it's too late
It doesn't have to be your fate
