Jace Everett Between A Father And A Son Lyrics

Between A Father And A Son Lyrics

Heywood was a daddy in 1942

He couldn't read or make his letters

He said, "Boy, I hope you don't do like I did"

And that was my dad he was talking to



So, my father grew up stronger

Bigger dreams and bigger plans

The first to go to college

But he can still work hard with his two hands

Thanks to his old man



Yeah, he learned to throw a baseball

How to sail a fishing line

He learned about forgiveness

'Cause you just can't waste the time



And the circle goes unbroken

But there's so much left undone

That's just how it is

Between a father and a son



Well, I became a daddy

At the age of twenty-three

I didn't know what I was doing

And my daddy wouldn't [Incomprehensible]

I felt lost at sea



So, I just kept it simple

Took it one day at a time

And followed in the foot-steps

Of the men that came before me in my life

And we're doing just fine



'Cause you learn to throw a baseball

How to sail a fishing line

And you learn about forgiveness

'Cause you just can't waste the time



And the circle goes unbroken

But there's so much left undone

But that's just how it is

Between a father and a son



And the circle goes unbroken

But there's so much left undone

And that's just how it is

Oh, that's just how it is

Between a father and a son

A father and a son

Between a father and a son
