Текст песни Calls Me Dad - Jelly Roll

I've been called a hustler, been called a gambler
Some people call me bad
I've been an old bad road, been a dirty T-shirt
Been a broken piece of glass
I've been called an asshole by the woman I love
Said things I shouldn't have
But that shit don't matter no more
'Cause the one I love just calls me dad

I've been a broken down car on the side of the road
I've been a sinning man that never read the bible before
I've walked miles on hot coals, alone in the dark
I've been stabbed in the back, and I've been shot in my heart

I've been lowlife scum from the bottom of the Earth
But all that changed when your mother gave birth
It was hard at first, I had so much I had to go through
Wouldn't believe all the things that I used to do

But for you, I would give it all up
I would never turn around and go back (back, back)
Because of you, I finally gave it all up and
I finally got my life on track
I ain't going back

I've been called a hustler, been called a gambler
Some people call me bad
I've been an old bad road, been a dirty T-shirt
Been a broken piece of glass
I've been called an asshole by the woman I love
Said things I shouldn't have
But that shit don't matter no more
'Cause the one I love just calls me dad

I can't wait to conversate when you get grown enough
So I can tell you the story how daddy sobered up
I'm on the road, I'm always chasing the dream
But I swear this is so much better than how I used to be

I had to swallow my pride, push some ego aside
I had to do a little hustling, so we could survive
Some days I'm so mad that it eats me alive
But I deal with it with a smile, so I can be by your side

Everybody in the world just wants a piece of the pie
I'm getting mine but just know that you're the reason I try
On the tour bus that smells like whiskey, weed and cigarettes
I've been gone for three days, I wonder if you miss me yet

I've been called a hustler, been called a gambler
Some people call me bad
I've been an old bad road, been a dirty T-shirt
Been a broken piece of glass
I've been called an asshole by the woman I love
Said things I shouldn't have
But that shit don't matter no more
'Cause the one I love just calls me dad

The greatest gift in life we can have is to be a parent
It's awesome to walk into a school and
Nobody knows you by Jelly Roll
Nobody knows you by Jason

All the kids just know you by your child's name
Immediately followed like little John's mother
"Oh, that's John's dad"
So as much as I love being me
I love being Bailey's dad
Yeah

I've been called a hustler, been called a gambler
Some people call me bad
I've been an old bad road, been a dirty T-shirt
Been a broken piece of glass
I've been called an asshole by the woman I love
Said things I shouldn't have
But that shit don't matter no more
'Cause the one I love just calls me dad
