I Need You (With Faith Hill)

In the fights they had he'd cover up his ears

Thought big boys don't cry, fight back all the tears

Mamma'd use her makeup to hide the bruises on her face

In the morning they'd pretend that there'd never ever been a trace

His old man woke him up to help him find the car

Take the bus uptown outside some run down bar

He swore that he was quitting, and then he'd start to cry

And though the boy knew the truth, sometimes he'd still believe that lieThe sins of the father are the sins of the son

All you do is crawl when you want to run

God gave boys their mammas

'Cause they always see their promise

And they help them understand

How to walk like man

Walk like a manThey moved a lot of places, they never settled down

And it got pretty old being the new kid in town

He'd always tell his friends, "My daddy's sick today"

Said he's be rich if he had a nickel every time he heard his momma say:The sins of the father are the sins of the son

Crawl before you walk boy, walk before you run

Come on stand up straight, I'm proud of you, take my hand

I know you can

Walk like a man

Walk like a manYour daddy's demons are callin' your name

Don't you listen to you 'em cause they got no claim

Temptations may come that ain't no sin

You get stronger every time that you don't give inThe sins of the father are the sins of son

You can't undo what has been done

You'll have to retrace his footsteps through the sand

And pray you find the love of a girl

Take her by the hand and walk on

Walk like a man
