Lyrics
I was a young buck, big wheel, heartbreaker, Nobody tying me down.
I was a lone wolf, independent operator,
When you rolled into town.
Baby something about you stopped me dead in my tracks.
Heaven gave me some sunshine and now I?m giving some back.
CHORUS
?Cos I?m a family man, I?ve come into my own.
You showed me direction, one I?ve never known.
And I said goodbye to what I used to be
And now I know I?m certain that you?re the one for me, I?m a family man.
You told me stories of high school and young love and the baby you have
Three years old now, sweet as an angel,
and she needs a dad.
But daddy ain?t coming back, he?s long gone away.
Well, honey don?t say a word, you know that I?m here to stay.
CHORUS
?Cos I?m a family man, you taught me what I know.
A new direction and now that I?ve been shown,
I said goodbye to what I used to be.
And now they tell me three?s a crowd,
but it?s OK with me, ?cos I?m a family man.
BRIDGE
Baby, I can read your mind, we?ve both been here before.
But all my crazy days are done and all my nights are yours.
CHORUS
A family man, I?ve come into my own.
You showed me direction, one I?d never known.
And so I said goodbye to what I used to be.
And now I know I?m certain that you?re the one for me.
Yeah I?m a family man. A family man. A family man.
