 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

I grew up
Son of a fireman
Painting houses
Mowing lawns

cll I wanted was a better life
For him and mama
Hell, for us all

Yeah I was grinding.
I moved to California, looking for that pot of gold
Then to Nashville...
Where me and a buddy, wrote a song y'all probably know.
By the time that i made it, he was gone...

Now, I could buy him that house by the river,
Where he could wake up every morning and cast a line.
I could back that brand new Caddy, in his driveway,
But, the only thing I guess I couldn't buy, was more time.

I guess denial ain't just some river in Egypt.
I was swimming in it, the whole time.
If I knew then, I would have been back in Dallas, by his side.
But, I was grinding the whole time...

So, I could buy him that house by the river,
He could wake up every morning and cast a line.
I could back that brand new Caddy, in his driveway,
But, the only thing I guess I couldn't buy, was more time.

I grew up, son of fireman...
Painting houses...
Mowing lawns...
