He was a giant
|
When I was just a kid
|
I was always trying
|
To do everything he did
|
I can still remember every lesson he taught me
|
Growing up learning how to be like my old man
|
|
He was a lion
|
We were our father's pride
|
But I was defiant
|
When he made me walk the line
|
He knew how to lift me up
|
And when to let me fall
|
Looking back, he always had a plan
|
My old man
|
|
My old man
|
Feel the callous on his hands
|
And dusty overalls
|
My old man
|
Now I finally understand
|
I have a lot to learn
|
From my old man
|
|
Now I'm a giant
|
Got a son of my own
|
He's always trying
|
To go everywhere I go
|
Do the best I can to raise him up the right way
|
Hoping that he someday wants to be
|
Like his old man
|
|
My old man
|
I know one day we'll meet again
|
As he's looking down
|
My old man
|
I hope he's proud of who I am
|
I'm trying to fill the boot of my old man
|
|
My old man
|
