Things My Father Said

Black Stone Cherry

The things my father said
Would make me a better man
Hard work and the love of friendsA woman that understands

I hope my father knows
The seeds we′ve sown, still grow
At night I go to sleep
And pray he is watching over me

Somewhere there's a star
That′s shining so bright
That I can see you smile
And all that I need is one last chance
Just to hear you say goodbye

Sometimes I remember when
You taught me to tie my shoes
One thing I will never forget
Is the day that I lost you

I hope you always know
The that car that we built
Will always roll

Somewhere there's a star
That's shining so bright
That I can see you smile
And all that I need is one last chance
Just to hear you say goodbye

And if you have a dream
You better hang on for dear life
And when that cold wind blows
Just let it pass you by

Yeah, things my father said
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Somewhere there′s a star
That′s shining so bright
That I can see you smile
And all that I need is one last chance
Just to hear you say
Goodbye
Goodbye

Just to hear you say
Goodbye
