I know that I surprised you coming home, It´s not my usual time of 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. You would pick me up, and you´d kiss my hurt away. Remember what you´d say, "Boy you´re 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.
She says she´s gonna leave me, momma. Nothing on God´s green Earth would 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 have been times you felt her way. So tell me word for word what he said that always made you stay.
