Measure Of A Man Lyrics

Measure Of A Man lyrics

I may never buy me a big house

A Cadillac, cruising with the top down

That aint the way I am



I judge a man by the gold on the
inside

Im not fooled by the glitter on the outside

That aint the
measure of a man



It aint how far you go

It aint how much you
make

Son, its what you give

Not what you take

Its being strong
and true

To those countin' on you

Its lendin a hand, makin a
stand

Thats the measure of a man



I give an honest days work
for an honest days pay

Ill stand behind every word I say

Ill seal a
deal with a shake of a hand

If Im a few rungs short of the top of the
ladder

When I meet my maker what will it matter

That aint the
measure of a man



It aint how far you go

It aint how much you
make

Son, its what you give

Not what you take

Its being strong
and true

To those countin' on you

Its lendin a hand, makin a
stand

Thats the measure of a man



Its lendin a hand, makin a
stand

Thats the measure of a man

Oh thats the measure of a man

Thats the measure of a man

Thats the measure of a man
