When Daddy Was a Strong Man Sözleri

Old man Red at the store

Would leave a note on the door

It'd say ran to the house

Be back in a few

Leave your money on the counter

It was twenty-six cents

For the coke and some gum

Nothing ever got stole

You could trust everyone

Even out of towners

And football was played for the game

And music was made for the song

When daddy was a strong man

And momma was a blonde

I missed a bird with a rock

With my new slingshot

Broke a window and I was the talk of the town

And that was big trouble

There was no point ruinnin'

Or tryin' to lie

Was it worse seeing all of that shame in dad's eyes

Or watching the belt get unbuckled

no way

Most everyone played by the rules

Right was right and wrong was wrong

When daddy was a strong man

And momma was a blonde

(chorus)

Though it's clear as day here in my mind

The picture of a simpler time

Wish change would just leave well enough alone

Those days are gone now

When daddy was a strong man

And momma was a blonde

Now this boy on my shoulder

Tells all his friends

That I can beat up their dads

And his momma is the prettiest

Momma in the world

And she is

Yeah I thought that too

When I was his age

Don't know how long I kept thinking that way

But one things for sure

He'll be standing where I am one day

But his mind will be somwhere back on

When daddy was a strong man

And momma was a blonde

I missed a bird with a rock

With my new slingshot

Broke a window and I was the talk of the town

And that was big trouble

There was no point ruinnin'

Or tryin' to lie

Was it worse seeing all of that shame in dad's eyes

Or watching the belt get unbuckled

no way

Most everyone played by the rules

Right was right and wrong was wrong

When daddy was a strong man

And momma was a blonde

(chorus)

Though it's clear as day here in my mind

The picture of a simpler time

Wish change would just leave well enough alone

Those days are gone now

When daddy was a strong man

And momma was a blonde

(chorus)

Though it's clear as day here in my mind

The picture of a simpler time

Wish change would just leave well enough alone

Those days are gone now

When daddy was a strong man

And momma was a blonde
