Pick up that old bible, i can hear him on every page
The sermon quotes and scripture notes that he wrote won't fade with age
I see the pictures on the table of Friday nights and football games
Flashback to growing up being taught about the simple things
Life ain't the same, as
When he was preaching and teaching on Sunday mornings out in that small town
Didn't need much else but the good lord's help and lord i need it now
Bring his words to mind a day at a time as i try to live
In a way that honors you and honors him
Let others see him in me, let me leave a legacy
Like daddy did
Yeah i remember when he taught me how to pull a trigger and wet a line
Fix that flat, swing that bat, boy knock it out the park every single time
He was there for me, ain't that what this life's about
The greatest thing i learned from him i learned by watching him live out
CH2 (different starting phrase)
What he was preaching..........
Someday i'll see him again, but lord til then
Bring his words to mind a day at a time as i try to live
In a way that honors you and honors him
Let others see him in me, let me leave a legacy
Like daddy did
