Up in the Midwestern cold Minnesota
|
18 years from here if you go by the roads
|
Lived a man from Columbus, Ohio
|
He's been my father since a long time ago
|
|
He said, "I'll stay behind you"
|
I'll stay behind you, I'll stay behind you, son of mine
|
I'll stay behind you, I'll stay behind you
|
I'll stay behind you till the day I die
|
|
And I remember days and days and days, spinnin' harmony
|
Christmas day spinnin' white oak park
|
All those brown bags of a dollars worth of candy
|
I saw him walk from a rap scene, then rap ever saw
|
|
He said, "I'll stay behind you"
|
I'll stay behind you, I'll stay behind you, son of mine
|
I'll stay behind you, I'll stay behind you
|
I'll stay behind you till the day I die
|
|
I haven't seen ya much since I was 12 years old
|
I don't suppose I'll see ya much on the rest of the road
|
And you should know that I miss you often
|
I miss your lap as much as you miss your mother's
|
|
And I'll stay behind you
|
I'll stay behind you, I'll stay behind you, son of mine
|
I'll stay behind you, I'll stay behind you
|
I'll stay behind you till the day I die
|
|
I wonder if you picture me as sings rider to the sea
|
Sometimes you wonder if I come out alive
|
Well, up jumped Dingo he was grinning like 'whatever'
|
I'm may stray far but I'll be back by five
|
|
He said I'll stay behind you
|
I'll stay behind you, I'll stay behind you, son of mine
|
I'll stay behind you, I'll stay behind you
|
I'll stay behind you, son of mine
|
|
I'll stay behind you, I'll stay behind you
|
I'll stay behind you, son of mine
|
I'll stay behind you, I'll stay behind you
|
I'll stay behind you till the day I die
|
