Intro: x2 verse 1: Heywood was a daddy in 1942, He couldn't read or make his letters, He said "Boy, I hope you don't do like I do," That was my dad he was talking to So my father grew up stronger, bigger dreams and bigger plans The first to go to college But he can still work hard with his two hands Thanks to his old man Yeah he learned to throw a baseball How to sail a fishing line He learned about forgiveness 'Cause you just can't waste the time And the circle goes unbroken But there's so much left undone That's just how it is Between a father and a son verse 2: I became a daddy at the age of 23 I didn't know what I was doing Hell, my daddy wasn't through yet raising me I felt lost at sea So I just kept it simple, took it one day at a time And followed in the footsteps Of the men that came before me in my life And we're doing just fine Chorus:
