So Much Like My Dad

I know that I surprised you coming home
It's not my usual time of year; but I've got myself a problem
And I know that I might find the answer here
Remember when I was dad's pride and joy and your little man
Every time that I got hurt you were there to give a hand
You would pick me up, and you'd kiss my hurt away
Remember what you'd say
"Boy you're getting more like him each and every day"
Can we have a talk like it was yesterday?

Your boy is back in trouble and he needs you right away
She says she's gonna leave me, momma
Nothing on God's green Earth would make her stay
I can't live without her, momma
But this time you can't kiss the hurt away
But if I'm so much like my dad

There must have been times you felt her way
So tell me word for word what he said that always made you stay
She says she's gonna leave me, momma
But if I'm so much like my dad

There must have been times you felt her way
So tell me word for word what he said
That always made you stay
