Lyrics

Whoa, Jocko, don't expect me To come out drinking, messin' around Spending time With a bunch of crazy people Yes, I've been there before I don't need to go back no more I'm just a family man Like it or not I am a family man I'm a-holding onto what I've got I am a family man Right by damn I finally find out the what I am Nothin' but a family man And don't expect me To hit the road At a moment's notice Without my suitcase With some crazy bunch of strangers In some unknown car I'm just not willing to go that far The life I used to lead was a little too frantic I guess I just got eyes to grow old and grey And if what I have in mind isn't super romantic to ya I guess I've always saw myself this way I'm just a family man Like it or not I am a family man Holding onto what I've got Family man Right by damn I finally find out the what I really am Seems to be a family man Oh, family Sears and Roebuck Howard Johnson Colonel Sanders Station wagon Arnold Paole Second mortgage Look at here, daddy I want that thing Oh, I'm a family man Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh If I can never lose my blues Walk on over and turn on the TV What I'd like to do is lie down on the sofa Maybe watch some football I'm just a family man Like it or not I am a family man Holding onto what I've got Nothin' but a family man Right by damn I finally find out the what I am Nothin' but a family man
