MY OLD MAN

	Verse		HE SERVED HIS COUNTRY BACK IN VIET NAM
			A HERO AMONG MEN.
			THEY SENT HIM HOME WITH A CHEST FULL OF MEDALS
			AND TAUGHT HIM HOW TO WALK AGAIN.
			HE BUILT HIS HOUSE WITH HIS OWN TWO HANDS
			ON A CORNER LOT BOUGHT ON THE VA PLAN
			HE MARRIED MY MAMA, NOW HERE I AM
			AND I'M PROUD TO SAY:

	Chorus          HE'S A GOOD OLD BOY WHO LOVED EARNHARDT.
			GOT A RED-NECK AND A PURPLE HEART
			HE FLIES OLD GLORY OUT IN HIS FRONT YARD
			EACH AND EVERY DAY
			HE LOVES HIS WIFE AND HE'S PROUD OF HIS KIDS
			HE'S WORKING TWO JOBS WITH NO REGRETS
			HE SLEEPS WELL KNOWING THAT HE'S DONE HIS BEST
			I'M HIS BIGGEST FAN.  YEAH, THAT'S MY OLD MAN.

	Verse           GROWING UP HE TAUGHT ME RIGHT FROM WRONG
			THANK GOD HE TOOK THE TIME
			AND WE BOTH KNEW WHERE THAT LEATHER BELT HUNG
			IF I GOT OUT OF LINE
			HE SAID THERE'S NOTHING LIKE AN HONEST WEEK'S WORK
			A GOOD DAY OF FISHING AND SOME SUNDAY CHURCH
			IF A NEIGHBOR WAS IN NEED HE WAS ALWAYS FIRST
			TO LEND A HELPING HAND.

            Chorus      HE'S A GOOD OLD BOY  …..

            Bridge 	I OVERHEARD MY SON AND HIS BEST FRIEND, DREW 	             	BRAGGIN' ON THEIR DADDIES LIKE YOUNG BOYS DO.
			HE'S SO GLAD I'M BACK.
			FROM THIS WAR IN IRAQ!

            Chorus      YEAH, I'M A GOOD OLD BOY WHO LOVED EARNHARDT.
			GOT A RED-NECK AND A PURPLE HEART.
			I FLY OLD GLORY OUT IN MY FRONT YARD
			EACH AND EVERY DAY.
			I LOVE MY WIFE AND I'M PROUD OF MY KIDS
			I'M WORKING TWO JOBS WITH NO REGRETS.
			I SLEEP WELL KNOWING THAT I'VE DONE MY BEST.
			SOMEDAY HE'LL UNDERSTAND JUST HOW PROUD I AM,
		        I'M HIS OLD MAN.
