Daddy's Son

Well, I'm my daddy's son
If you need to blame someone
Don't blame me and momma
For all those things I'd done

But like that old last word
I can't help but to make it mine
And if you say a quarter
I'll say a nickel and two dimes

Oh, it's in my blood
The fighting, cussing, hold my girl real tight
To find the underdog, and make him strong
So he can be alright

Oh, and I walk straight till it gets late
And the beer swerves me to the right
So if you're looking for where I get it from
I'm my daddy's son

Growing up, I didn't get it
Man, I thought we couldn't be more different
I was troubled by your tongue
Always wished you would a-begging

Acting like I didn't need
Always pushing you away
If I'm being honest
Dad, I'm so glad you stayed

Somehow that anyone had advice
Slowly crept into my life
Funny how some things you just can't teach
All I needed was a glance
At your two hardworking hands
Then the rest started burning inside of me

Oh, it's in my blood
The fighting, cussing, hold my girl real tight
To find the underdog, and make him strong
So he can be alright

Oh, and I walk straight till it gets late
And the beer swerves me to the right
So if you're looking for where I get it from
I'm my daddy's son

And I'll give you this name
I know right now, you don't feel the same
I promise son, you'll look back one day
And then you'll say—

Oh, it's in my blood
The fighting, cussing, hold my girl real tight
To find the underdog, and make him strong
So he can be alright

Oh, and I walk straight till it gets late
And the beer swerves me to the right
So if you're looking for where I get it from
Oh, if you're looking for where I get it from
I'm my daddy's son
