I know that I've surprised you comin' home
It's not my usual time of the year
But I've got myself a problem
And I know that I might find the answer here
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
Even pick me up
And you'd kiss my hurt away
Remember what you'd say
"Boy, you're gettin' more like him"
"Each and everyday"
Can we have a talk
Like it was yesterday
Your boy's back in trouble
And he needs you right away
She said, "She's gonna leave me momma"
"And nothing on God's green earth will make her stay"
I can't live without her momma
But this time you can't kiss the hurt away
But if I'm so much like my dad
There must've been times you felt her way
So tell me word for word what he said
That always made you stay
She said, "She's gonna leave me momma"
But if I'm so much like my dad
There must've been times you felt her way
So tell me word for word what he said
That always made you stay
