Gotta Be a Man
I guess all in all I got the shortest straw
When I was learnin' how to be a man
Cause daddy met a little hottie
With a pretty little body
And he's never comin' home again
I guess what brought him down
Was a night on the town
With little miss norma jean
But a heart on trial
And a crooked smile
Never could compete
And I said
Hey hey someday you gotta be a man
Hey hey someday you gotta understand
That one thing's for certain you're one in a million
I guess all in all I got the crooked saw
When I was learnin' how to build a home
Cause all along you were wrong
When you promised that I
Would never go home alone
I guess who you are ain't very far
From who you'd like to be
But you sacrificed what you needed most
When you walked away from me
And I said
Hey hey someday you gotta be a man
Hey hey someday you gotta understand
That one thing's for certain you're one in a million
I guess all in all I got the shortest straw
When I was learnin' how to be a man
Cause daddy met a little hottie
With a pretty little body
And he's never comin' home again
I guess what brought him down
Was a night on the town
With little miss norma jean
But a heart on trial
And a crooked smile
Never could compete
And I said
Hey hey someday you gotta be a man
Hey hey someday you gotta understand
That one thing's for certain you're one in a million
When I was learnin' how to be a man
Cause daddy met a little hottie
With a pretty little body
And he's never comin' home again
I guess what brought him down
Was a night on the town
With little miss norma jean
But a heart on trial
And a crooked smile
Never could compete
And I said
Hey hey someday you gotta be a man
Hey hey someday you gotta understand
That one thing's for certain you're one in a million
I guess all in all I got the crooked saw
When I was learnin' how to build a home
Cause all along you were wrong
When you promised that I
Would never go home alone
I guess who you are ain't very far
From who you'd like to be
But you sacrificed what you needed most
When you walked away from me
And I said
Hey hey someday you gotta be a man
Hey hey someday you gotta understand
That one thing's for certain you're one in a million
I guess all in all I got the shortest straw
When I was learnin' how to be a man
Cause daddy met a little hottie
With a pretty little body
And he's never comin' home again
I guess what brought him down
Was a night on the town
With little miss norma jean
But a heart on trial
And a crooked smile
Never could compete
And I said
Hey hey someday you gotta be a man
Hey hey someday you gotta understand
That one thing's for certain you're one in a million
