More Like My Daddy Than Me - The Statlers[00:00:00]
I just spent an unusual evening[00:00:05]
At a banquet that still won't digest[00:00:10]
Watching this years high school heroes[00:00:16]
Get awarded for what they do best[00:00:22]
There's a letter for the one that jumped highest[00:00:27]
And one ran faster by far[00:00:33]
One broke the 200 meters[00:00:39]
And one broke her arm on the bar[00:00:45]
The baseball team took the honors[00:00:56]
The MDP stole the show[00:01:02]
The coach looked scared with the tie on[00:01:07]
Swore next year they'd be 15 and old[00:01:12]
And in tomorrow mornings newspaper[00:01:18]
There'll be pictures that surely reveal[00:01:24]
Young men looking strange with no caps on[00:01:29]
And Tomboys in dresses and heels[00:01:35]
And I've stood up there where they're standing[00:01:41]
And never once thought I would be[00:01:46]
Sitting down here where I'm sitting[00:01:52]
Looking more like my Daddy than me[00:01:58]
Looking more like my Daddy than me[00:02:03]
Twenty some years from tomorrow[00:02:15]
These same boys and girls will find[00:02:20]
An old fading newspaper clipping[00:02:26]
Yellow and torn up with time[00:02:31]
Their daughters and sons will be standing[00:02:37]
Up there where they used to be[00:02:43]
And only then will they know what I'm feeling[00:02:48]
When they're sitting out here with me[00:02:54]
And I've stood up there where they're standing[00:02:59]
Behind the MDP[00:03:05]
But it's late I'm tired and still hungry[00:03:11]
Acting more like my Daddy than me[00:03:16]
I'm getting more like my Daddy than me[00:03:22]
