I know that I surprised you coming 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 upand you d kiss my hurt away.
Remember what you d say
"Boy you re getting more like him each and every day."
Can we have a talk like it was yesterday?

Your boy is back in trouble and he needs you right away.
She says she s gonna leave memomma.
Nothing on God s green Earth would make her stay.
I can t live without hermomma
But this time you can t kiss the hurt away.
But if I m so much like my dad

There must have been times you felt her way.
So tell me word for word what he said that always made you stay.
She says she s gonna leave memomma.
But if I m so much like my dad

There must have been times you felt her way.
So tell me word for word what he said
That always made you stay.
