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
