Daddy Was

Hanes T tucked in Levi jeans

Leather belt branded 3:16

He had duct tape holdin’ up that black kjv beat up bible  

Every Sunday he’d shake every hand

Not just one day that he gave a damn

If Jesus needed more than a 12 man band man he’d be His 13th disciple

Daddy was changing tires and changing lives

Pissing folks off on Wednesday night

Cause he’d open the doors for the town whores and the drunks

If a Family (fam a ly) needed picking up

He’d grab the key to that old church bus it didn’t matter how many miles man he’d just drive

Fore I kiss the sky  

I hope I’m half the guy my Daddy was

Yeah he hated pot luck dinners

But sure loved the hell out of sinners

Never got tired of preaching

But he got sick of that green bean casserole

Comet can and a toilet brush

On his knees workin’ while prayin’ for us

That stone in the ground outside town

Couldn’t hold a good man down

Daddy was changing tires and changing lives

Pissing folks off on Wednesday night

Cause he’d open the doors for the town whores and the drunks

Yeah if a Family needed picking up

He’d grab the key to that old church bus it didn’t matter how many miles man he’d just drive

Fore I kiss the sky  

I hope I’m half the guy my Daddy was

Was the first one in

Last one out

I know do it all again

If Heaven let him come back down right now he’d be

Changing tires and changing lives

Pissing folks off on Wednesday night

And opening the doors for the town whores and the drunks

If a Family needed picking up

He’d grab the key to that old church bus it didn’t matter how many miles man he’d just drive

Fore I kiss the sky  

I hope I’m half the guy my Daddy was
