Daddy Told Me

Daddy told me there'll be days like this 

Never listened to a single word that he said

Yeah he told me - suck it up or it'll bring you down

Never turn your back on life - cause it will cut you like a knife

Daddy told me - listen up or it'll bury you

Stick to your guns - and never let this world put you down

Daddy told me you're my only son - so please make me proud

Show some respect or you'll be hellbound

Daddy told me it's all about God, guts and glory

Show the world the man the myth, your story

Daddy told me - there'll be ups and there'll be downs

Life's a book and you'll write your own story

Yeah he told me - saddle up - you're in for the ride of your life

You got to have faith and listen to his glory

Daddy told me son - try to be the best you can be

Love yourself - I promise that the rest will fall in

Daddy told me you're my only son - so please make me proud

Show some respect or you'll be hellbound

Daddy told me it's all about God, guts and glory

Show the world the man the myth, your story

Daddy told me you're my only son - so please make me proud

Show some respect or you'll be hellbound

Daddy told me it's all about God, guts and glory

Show the world the man the myth, your story

Daddy told me - Daddy told me

Yeah he told me - Yeah he told me

And he showed me - and he showed me

Daddy told me - Daddy told me
