He said son won't you lend an ear to what I have to say
|
I've been down this road before and I think I know the way
|
He said I can't help but see that's quite the load you bear
|
You better lose that attitude if you wanna get somewhere
|
|
You look at me as if you see a worthless man
|
Well don't be fooled son by the dirt on these hands
|
(Chorus)
|
He said never judge a man by the clothes that he wears
|
Don't take for granted that he chose the cross he bears
|
You can't put him down for who he is or what he does
|
Cause you don't dig the holes that he dug
|
He said son this road of life's been known to take it's toll
|
I've hit all the rough spots, every ditch and every hole
|
There's just so many paths but wrong or right's a choice
|
Don't let what you think you know throw you off course
|
|
He said slow down son and take it all in stride
|
Take your time, along with this advice,
|
|
(Chorus|Solo)
|
|
(Tag)
|
You can't put him down for who he is or what he does
|
Cause you don't dig the holes he dug
|
