The Man in Me (dedicated to my grandfather)

Location

There's a lot of pressure in this world.

This crazy-ass, city-and-sas world.

But hell, it ain't real.

Gotta listen to a real man every once in a while...

 

He's a hard workin', head turnin',

strong and honest American.

He ain't scaed to cry but stays in the fight

and one of the brightest stars in she sky.

 

Works hard to make a livin'

Fought for our coutry.

Tearin'apart hell and makin' heaven.

 

The man in me.

Runs in the family

best bad-ass you'll ever see.

Fights for right, don't done wrong.

Seen the light but came back home.

That's the man in me.

 

Got a make-shift stick-shift in his truck.

He's haulin' ass, in the bed of his pick up.

Got his own views better see 'em comin'.

 

Figtin' fires, savin' lives.

how a real man lives an how he dies.

 

The man in me.

Runs in the family, best bad-ass you'll ever see.

Fights for right, don't do no wrong.

Seen the light, but came back home.

That's the man in me.
