Lyrics
Hey, Dad!
It's been a while
I just drove about a thousand miles
Where I live
Now it's cold
And you ain't the only one who feels like an old man
Better tie one on
While we can
So take me out!
And get me drunk!
Get us both outta this old blue funk
Makin' up
For time we missed
Who cares if this week's pay
All gets pissed away
You know I ain't got long to stay
And there ain't shit else to do in this town anyway!
Hey Dad!
It's good to see
Your old lady is older than me
Before you start to miss her
Let's get another pitcher
And then we'll both be just a couple beers richer
[guitar solo]
Hey, Dad!
I don't wanna fight
But you're about to lose your juke box rights
The cat's not in the cradle
And Someday's gonna come
And I'll hafta kick your ass
If you play "Father and Son"
Just take me out!
And get me drunk!
Get us both outta this old blue funk
Makin' up
For time we missed
Who cares if this week's pay
All gets pissed away
You know I ain't got long to stay
And there ain't shit else to do in this town anyway!
Hey, Dad!
It's been a while
Hey Dad!
It's good to see your drunken smile
Hey, Dad!
I don't wanna fight
Hey, Dad!
Let's put back some Natty Lights
Yeah, Just take me out!
And get me drunk!
Get us both outta this old blue funk
Makin' up
For time we missed
Who cares if this week's pay
All gets pissed away
[slower]
Hey, Dad...
Sorry we never did
Hey, Dad...
Sorry I was such a weird kid
Hey, Dad...
If Jesus let's ya drink
I'll lift a beer and think
About what I might have said
If I could have ever exited my head
Long enough to really get to know you
Hey, Dad
Hope it's easier where you're at
