I don't know too much about you   Too much of my old man   I know he walked right out that door   We never saw him again   Last I heard he was at the bar   Doin' himself in   I know I got that same disease   I got stuck with that from him      This is the story of my old man   Just like it's gonna be for him   I'm tellin' you do anything thing you can   So you don't end up just like him, like him      Monday he woke up and hated life   Drank until Wednesday and left his wife   Thursday through Saturday he lost everything   Woke up on Sunday miserable again      I remember baseball games   And workin' on the car   Told me that he loved me   And that I would go far   Showed me how to work hard   And stick up for myself   I wish he wasn't to hard   To listen to himself      This is the story of my old man   Just like it's gonna be for him   I'm tellin' you do anything thing you can   So you don't end up just like him, like him      Monday he woke up and hated life   Drank until Wednesday and left his wife   Thursday through Saturday he lost everything   Woke up on Sunday miserable again   Again, again      Someday he wish that   He made things right   (Made things right)   Long for his family   And miss his wife   (Miss his wife)   Remember the days he had everything   (Everything)   Now he's alone and miserable again
