I remember looking up
|
To look up to him
|
And I remember most the time
|
He wasn't there
|
I'd be waiting at the door
|
When he got home at night
|
He'd pass me by to go to pass out in his chair
|
|
And I'd say
|
Walk a little straighter daddy
|
You're swaying side to side
|
You're footsteps make me dizzy
|
And no matter how I try
|
I keep tripping and stumbling
|
If you'd look down here you'd see
|
Walk a little straighter daddy
|
You're leading me
|
|
He stumbled in the gym
|
On graduation day
|
And I couldn't help but feel
|
So ashamed
|
And I wasn't surprised a bit
|
When he didn't stay
|
He stumbled out before they called my name
|
|
And I thought
|
Walk a little straighter daddy
|
You're swaying side to side
|
It's not just me who's watching
|
you've caught everybody's eye
|
And you're tripping and stumbling
|
and even though I've turned 18
|
Walk a little straighter daddy
|
You're still leading me
|
|
The old mans still like he always was
|
But I love him anyway
|
If I've learned one thing from him
|
Its my kids will never have to say
|
|
Walk a little straighter daddy
|
You're swaying side to side
|
You're footsteps make me dizzy
|
And no matter how I try
|
I keep tripping and stumbling
|
if you'd look down here you'd see
|
Walk a little straighter daddy
|
You're leading me
|
|
Yeah walk a little straighter daddy
|
You're leading me
|
