Back

[Verse 1]

Starin' my life through a rolled down window

Reminiscin' those main streets nights with the radio loud

Just I like I did when I was a kid

I was cool as hell, bad to the bone, I knew it all

I remember that needle buzzin' ink, got that cross in my forearm

Hit it pretty good 'til that summer workin' on the farm

Talk about dad, talk about mad

Givin' me the talk about

[Chorus]

Was I the kinda man

Who gave his word when he shook a hand

Did I get it so wrong, just to get it right

For once in my life and would I live it twice

Did I fill my boots with every step I made

Did I walk all over my daddy's good name

Am I gonna see the me I was born to be

From where I'm at

When I look back

[Verse 2]

To a right at the light steeple that I ran from

Feelin' one of those stained glass flashbacks comin' on

Ain't been inside since daddy died

Took the end of his own life to get me thinkin' 'bout mine

[Chorus]

Was I the kinda man

Who gave his word when he shook a hand

Did I get it so wrong, just to get it right

For once in my life and would I live it twice

Did I fill my boots with every step I made

Did I walk all over my daddy's good name

Am I gonna see the me I was born to be

From where I'm at

When I look back

When I look back

[Verse 3]

Yeah when I stand before God at the end of my life

Will the tears turn to smiles that I leave behind

Did I use to all the good

Did I give all the love that I had inside

[Chorus]

Was I the kinda man

Who gave his word when he shook a hand

Did I get it so wrong, just to get it right

For once in my life and would I live it twice

Did I fill my boots with every step I made

Did I walk all over my daddy's good name

Am I gonna see the me I was born to be

From where I'm at

When I look back

Hmm when I look back

[Outro]

Starin' my life through a rolled down window

Reminiscin' those main streets nights with the radio loud

Just I like I did when I was a kid
