man of the south

there's some days when i wake up can't remember where i am

said some things

regrets some things but i really don't give a damn

somewhere on this road i'm on i forgot what it's like to feel

i know i can't see heaven up there but i know that it's real

and i ain't sure if i'll get in

but you best believe i'm trying

and it's just what my daddy told me

and that's how i live my life

gotta take that ball cap off before you say grace

and always own up to your own mistakes

and don't you ever back down

no way

nohow

gotta make your daddy proud that he raised a man of the south

i can't heal the broken hearts i left so far behind

but on this road that i haven chose i lost all sense of time

so i drift into the night trying to drown away my sorrows

it might be wrong but that's alright 'cause all the time is borrowed anyways

gotta take that ball cap off before you say grace

and always own up to your own mistakes

and don't you ever back down

no way

nohow

gotta make your daddy proud that he raised a man of the south

some call me lost

some call me crazy

but that's okay

think what you want

say what you will

but i've always kept it real

there's a cost for all these sins

and i'm bound to pay the price

but this is what my daddy told me

and that's how i live my life

gotta take that ball cap off

son

before you say grace

and always own up to your own mistakes

and don't you ever back down

no way

nohow

gotta make your daddy proud that he raised a man of the south

a man of the south

better take that ball cap off

son
