Man of the South

Ah, yeah

There's some days that I wake up, can't remember where I am
Said some things, regret some things, but I really don't give a damn
Somewhere on this road I'm on, I forgot what it's like to feel
I know I can't see Heaven up there, but I know that it's real
And I ain't sure if I'll get in, but you best believe I'm tryin'
And this is what my daddy told me, and that's how I live my life

"Gotta take that ball cap off before you say grace
And always own up to your own mistakes
And don't you ever back down, no way, no how
Gotta make your daddy proud that he raised a man of the South"
Yeah, that's what he did

I can't heal the broken hearts I left so far behind
On this road that I have chose, I lost all sense of time
So I drift into the night tryna drown away my sorrows
It might be wrong, but that's alright 'cause all the time is borrowed anyways

"Gotta take that ball cap off before you say grace
And always own up to your own mistakes
And don't you ever back down, no way, no how
Gotta make your daddy proud that he raised a man of the South"

Some call me lost, some call me crazy
But that's okay
Think what you want, say what you will
But I've always kept it real
There's a cost for all these sins, and I'm bound to pay the price
Now this is what my daddy told me, and that's how I live my life

"Gotta take that ball cap off, son, before you say grace
And always own up to your own mistakes
And don't you ever back down, no way, no how
Gotta make your daddy proud that he raised a man of the South"

A man of the South
Ah, take it away boys
Better take that ball cap off so
