[Verse 1]
I know that I surprised you coming home
It is not my usual time of year; but I have got myself a problem
And I know that I might find the answer here
[Verse 2]
Remember when I was dad's pride and joy and your little man
Every time that I got hurt you were there to give a hand
You would pick me up, and you would kiss my hurt away
Remember what you would say
"Boy you are getting more like him each and every day."
Can we have a talk like it was yesterday?
Your boy is back in trouble and he needs you right away
[Verse 3]
She says she is going to leave me, momma
Nothing on God's green Earth would make her stay
I cannot live without her, momma
But this time you cannot kiss the hurt away
[Chorus]
But if I am so much like my dad
There must have been times you felt her way
So tell me word for word what he said that always made you stay
[Chorus]
She says she is going to leave me, momma
But if I am so much like my dad
There must have been times you felt her way
So tell me word for word what he said
That always made you stay
