My Old Man

He was a giant
 
 And I was just a kid
 I was always trying
 To do everything he did
 I can still remember every lesson he taught me
 Growing up learning how to be
 Like my old man
 ♪
 He was a lion
 We were our father's pride
 But I was defiant
 When he made me walk the line
 He knew how to lift me up
 And when to let me fall
 Looking back, he always had a plan
 My old man
 My old man
 
 Feel the callous on his hands
 And dusty overalls
 My old man
 Now I finally understand
 I have a lot to learn
 From my old man
 ♪
 Now I'm a giant
 Got a son of my own
 He's always trying
 To go everywhere I go
 Do the best I can to raise him up the right way
 Hoping that he someday wants to be
 Like his old man
 ♪
 My old man
 I know one day we'll meet again
 As he's looking down
 My old man
 
 I hope he's proud of who I am
 I'm trying to fill the boots of my old man
