Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He built a house that I grew up in
Cut a trail to the creek, made us learn how to swim
If you take patience and nerves of steel
Weld it together, it's a hell of a shield
Covered up what a kid shouldn't have to feel
[Chorus]
Fortune five out a steady hand
Like everything he made, I don't break, I don't bend
He's the reason I can when I think I can't
Yeah, the best of him made me who I am
I'm the daughter of an iron man
[Verse 2]
Up by 4:00, getting home by 5:00
Never had a doubt that we get by
He held up the sky when it was falling
When I need an answer, he's the one I'm calling
[Chorus]
Fortune five out a steady hand
Like everything he made, I don't break, I don't bend
He's the reason I can when I think I can't
Yeah, the best of him made me who I am
I'm the daughter of an iron man
[Bridge]
Self made, selfless, topshelf bourbon
Showed me the blues when my heart was hurting
When it feels better, when he gotta earn it
He said, "You can catch a dream when you put the work in"
[Chorus]
Fortune five out a steady hand
Like everything he made, I don't break, I don't bend
He's the reason I can when I think I can't
Yeah, the best of him made me who I am
I'm the daughter of an iron man
[Outro]
And I thank God I came from him
And I'm the daughter of an iron man
