Lyrics
Verse
Seems to me he was only 2 years old
When he first saw his daddy beat up he Ma
1st time at 3 Daddy marched him to the barn
Taught him bout losing ground
How's a man to grow into what we need
How in the world can we ever succeed
If the Daddy's don't do,
What the kid's really need
Chorus
Too far from the soul
Too close to the heart
Too sad for us all
He can't do his part
Too far from the soul
He can't do his part
Verse
He remembers his teens, men tearing him aprart
He wasn't quite macho he wasn't the jock
A sensitive man with a very good heart
Now he's married to me, but we have to part
Ya see he beats me up and he breaks our 2 years olds heart
Now won't someone tell me
How's a man to grow into what we need
How in the world can we ever succeed
If Daddy don't do, what a kid really needs
Chorus
Too far from the soul
Too close to the heart
Too sad for us all
He can't play his part
Too far from the truth
He won't play his part
SOLO
Chorus
Too far from the truth
Too close to the heart
Too sad for us all
He can't do his part
I wan't a man who know how to act
and loves God
To far from the truth
Too close to his heart
To sad for us all
He won't do his part
Too far from the truth
Too close to his heart
So sad for us all
He won't do his part
Too sad
Too bad
So bad for us
Too sad
Too Too bad
So So sad
