He didn't have much A pair of hard working hands Everything that I needed I got it from the old man With a nine second dream He drove the Redlight Bandit And the grease on his hands Was the way he commanded And the life he demanded It kept us all in a struggle When he ruled with his fist It kept us all out of trouble Even though he would leave He wore his heart on his sleeve And by the way that he walked He taught me how to believe Old man look at my life Take a look, take a look Old man look at my life 'Cause I'm a lot like you Old man, old man take a look at my life Take a look, take a look Old man, old man take a look at my life 'Cause I'm a lot like you Growin' up at the track He had a reason for being fast His heart felt like breaking He'd look right up at the ceiling and Start again, never breathe a word of his loss 'Cause it's not about winning It's the rivers you cross And the pain that you feel Could be the fuel that you use And if you're in need of direction Be it the path that you choose My old man is a legend He cast a shadow so great I think of how he is watchin' With every move that I make Old man look at my life Take a look, take a look Old man look at my life 'Cause I'm a lot like you Old man, old man take a look at my life Take a look, take a look Old man, old man take a look at my life 'Cause I'm a lot like you Now there's no slowin' down There's only settin' the pace No more dreams to be stolen Just the right ones to chase You've been through the worst Now you know who to trust Leave them something behind Before the ashes and dust Old man look at my life Old man look at my life Old man, old man take a look at my life 'Cause I'm a lot like you Old man, old man take a look at my life 'Cause I'm a lot like you Old man, old man take a look at my life Take a look, take a look Old man, old man take a look at my life 'Cause I'm a lot like you Old man, old man take a look at my life Take a look, take a look Old man, old man take a look at my life 'Cause I'm a lot like you
