I know that I surprised you comin' home It's not my usual time of year But I've got myself a problem And I know that I might find the answer here Remember when I was dad's pride and joy and your little man Every time that I got hurt, you were there to give a hand You would pick me up and you'd kiss my hurt away Remember what you'd say Boy, you're gettin' more like him each and everyday Can we have a talk like it was yesterday? Your boy's back in trouble and he needs you right away She said, she's gonna leave me, momma Nothing on God's green earth will make her stay I can't live without her, momma But this time you can't kiss the hurt away But if I'm so much like my dad There must've been times you felt her way So tell me word for word what he said That always made you stay She said, she's gonna leave me, momma But if I'm so much like my dad There must've been times you felt her way So tell me word for word what he said That always made you stay
