Family Man

Whoa, Jocko, don't expect me to come out drinking, messing around

Spending my time with a bunch of crazy people

Yes, I been there before

I don't need to go back no more

I'm just a family man, like it or not

I am a family man, I'm a-holding onto what I've got

I'm a family man, right by damn

I finally find out that what I am is a family man

And don't expect me to hit the road

At a moment's notice without my suitcase

With some crazy bunch of strangers in some unknown car

Well, I'm just not willing to go that far

The life I used to lead was a little too frantic

I guess I just got eyes to grow old and grey

And if what I have in mind isn't super romantic

I guess I always saw myself this way

I'm just a family man, like it or not

That I am a family man, I'm a-holding onto what I've got

I'm a family man, oh yeah right by damn

I finally find out what I am is a family man

Sears and Roebuck, Howard Johnson

Colonel Sanders, Station wagon

Briggs and Stratton, second mortgage whoa

If I can ever lose my blues babe

Walk on over, turn on the TV

What I'd like to do is lie down on the sofa later on

I might walk my dog, baby whoa
