Lyrics
"Because of you"
When i was just a young boy my daddy took me on his
he said you're growing up now this is what you've got to be
Head my word and do as i say
and you'll make it through when your skies turn grey.
Blue collar my son is not something to fear
hard work is something that you should revere
don't kick a man when he is down
because you'll never know when your turn will come around
(Chorus)
Because of you i am the man I am today
Because you showed me the way you taught me right from wrong
because of you I am a man
Be kind be honest be gentle don't lie
and to your family never turn a blind eye
Don't be afraid to shed a tear
and always know that i will be here
(Chorus)
When i look in the mirror i can see his face
i see his love and see his grace
and it brings me joy when he says these words to me
when he says son you're everything i hoped you could be
(chorus) x3
