Saw a story on the local news last night |
| [00:12.67] |
About one more struggling single mother |
| [00:16.67] |
She was talking about how hard it is getting by |
| [00:19.47] |
With no help, no money, no nothing from the baby's father |
| [00:24.65] |
Made me think about this guy I know with a wife and a child |
| [00:28.77] |
Who's working two jobs just to get by |
| [00:33.26] |
Yeah, he says he'd do anything he could in this world |
| [00:35.88] |
Just to give his young family a better life; yeah, a better life |
| [00:41.88] |
Oh, that's a man |
| [00:49.38] |
That's a 19-year-old, modern-day hero man |
| [00:58.68] |
Those two young Marines over there fighting for their country |
| [01:02.92] |
Man, they're gonna be friends forever |
| [01:06.48] |
They've both come back eventually |
| [01:08.29] |
But as bonds and destiny would have it |
| [01:11.16] |
They don't come back together |
| [01:14.78] |
Yeah, the one who lived to tell about |
| [01:16.84] |
Why he can't even talk about it |
| [01:19.03] |
Keeps fighting that fight up there in his head |
| [01:23.07] |
Ain't a day goes by he don't wonder why |
| [01:26.39] |
Why it wasn't me instead |
| [01:28.82] |
It could've been me instead |
| [01:31.62] |
Oh, that's a man |
| [01:39.31] |
That's a you don't know how hard he tried to save his buddy's life man |
| [01:49.19] |
I don't know about you |
| [01:51.06] |
|
| [01:51.58] |
Sometimes, I just need a little reminder |
| [01:57.58] |
I'll be working through this world with plans and results Yes I have |
| [02:05.32] |
No and never hurt a man to try to be a better man |
| [02:10.87] |
And reach down and find some understanding |
| [02:17.86] |
Find some kind of kindness |
| [02:38.33] |
Read about a man who said his family |
| [02:40.39] |
Had been farming the same land in Ohio for 100 years |
| [02:46.38] |
Felt like he'd paid for it ten times over |
| [02:50.12] |
With his own blood, his own sweat, and his own tears |
| [02:54.80] |
If he had to, he'd be out there on that tractor working |
| [02:58.67] |
Seven long, hot days a week |
| [03:02.36] |
Yeah, he's the kind of feller that people get real quiet |
| [03:05.97] |
When he stands up in church to speak |
| [03:08.60] |
They know when he speaks |
| [03:10.97] |
Oh, that's a man |
| [03:18.52] |
That's a stand tall, walk straight |
| [03:20.39] |
Put God's share in the collection plate man |
| [03:23.51] |
|
| [03:27.59] |
Oh, that's a man |
| [03:35.78] |
Oh, that's a man |
