My Old Man (The Radiowv Session)

My Old Man'
Written by: Wes Shipp

He had a Florida Gators hat
Stood about 5 foot 8
And he loved Merle, Willie and Old George Strait
He drank his coffee black
Smoked Marlboro cigarettes
And if there's a better man, I ain't found one yet

That there's My Old Man
To make sure we were fed and warm, he did everything he can
And I bet if he could, he'd go and do it all over again
Yeah, that's My Old Man

He said a man's word is everything
Don't lie and don't you steal
And he was somethin' else with a rod and reel
Just like Waylon and Jessie
Yeah, just like Johnny and June
My momma thinks that he hung the moon

That there's My Old Man
He'd work until his fingers bled and he calloused up his hands
And I bet if he could, he'd go and do it all over again
Yeah, that's My Old Man

Yeah That's My Old Man

Now when he comes to see me
We'll all sit around and then
I'll fire one up and he'll tell stories about way back when
He ain't got very long
That I already know
And it breaks my heart when he hugs my neck and says ""Son, I got to go.""

That there's My Old Man
And so he knows how much I love him, I'll do anything I can
And I wish I could turn back time
Grow up all over again
Yeah, that's my best friend
My Old Man

Yeah, that's My Old Man
Thanks Old Man..
