My Old Man
Legacy in Melodies: Embracing My Roots Through Life's Symphony
Lyrics
I like my coffee black
I prefer my coffee without additives or sweeteners.
I sure hate to shave
I strongly dislike the act of shaving.
I drink a cold six pack
I consume a six-pack of cold beverages, possibly beer, during specific activities.
When I watch my Titans play
I enjoy watching the Tennessee Titans play, possibly while having a drink.
I still cut my own grass
I personally maintain my lawn by cutting the grass myself.
And always try to get to church
I make an effort to attend church regularly.
Sometimes I'm fighting mad
Occasionally, I get very angry or upset.
But I love so much it hurts
Despite challenges, I love deeply to the point where it causes emotional pain.
Hard headed, stuck in my ways
I am stubborn and resistant to change.
I could try my whole life
Even if I attempt to change, I acknowledge it might be an uphill battle.
But I know I won't change
I recognize that certain aspects of my personality are unlikely to change.
I don't need a mirror lookin' back at me
I don't require a mirror to reflect on my self-image.
'Cause every day it's clearer and I see
Every day, my self-awareness grows, revealing my similarities with my father.
I got a lot of my old man in me
I possess many traits and characteristics inherited from my father.
Still miss my home town
I still have strong feelings of attachment and nostalgia for my hometown.
I like fishing in the summer rain
I enjoy the activity of fishing, especially in the rain during the summer.
And I've thrown my voice out
I have strained my voice from cheering at multiple little league games.
At more than one little league game
I actively participate and support little league games.
And I'm good with a hammer and nail
I am skilled with tools and can assist friends with construction projects.
Help my buddies when they get stuck
I help my friends when they encounter difficulties.
Yeah, I've done pretty good for myself
Despite my stubbornness, I have achieved success in life.
But I still drive that same old truck
I still use the same old truck, emphasizing continuity in my life.
Hard headed, stuck in my ways
I am resistant to change and set in my ways.
I could try my whole life
Even if I try throughout my life, I anticipate resistance to change.
But I know I won't change
Accepting that certain aspects of my personality are resistant to change.
I don't need a mirror lookin' back at me
I don't need a mirror to reflect on my self-image.
'Cause every day it's clearer and I see
Every day, my self-awareness grows, revealing my similarities with my father.
I got a lot of my old man
I possess many traits and characteristics inherited from my father.
In every step I take I know there will come a day
I am aware that there will come a day when I reflect on my life's journey.
Where lookin' back I'll say, I was proud to be
In the future, I will express pride in being who I am and the legacy I carry.
Hard headed, stuck in my ways
I am resistant to change and set in my ways.
I could try my whole life
Even if I try throughout my life, I anticipate resistance to change.
But I know I won't change
Accepting that certain aspects of my personality are resistant to change.
I don't need a mirror lookin' back at me
I don't need a mirror to reflect on my self-image.
'Cause every day it's clearer and I see
Every day, my self-awareness grows, revealing my similarities with my father.
A lot of my old man in me, mmhm
I possess many traits and characteristics inherited from my father.
I see a lot of you, dad
I recognize and acknowledge the influence and resemblance of my father in me.
