An old man sat at my bar today An army vet with not a lot to say so I buy his drink I shake his hand and tell him thanks He says it’s been a long time since somebody cared This world has changed so much Son it just tears me up
I think about his words later that night Sitting on my front porch in the moonlight And I fold my hands Lord help to me be a better man
Chorus:
Oh take me back to the good ol days When a mans word was as true as the songs he sang And he gave thanks To God above and the women at his side Who held his hand and raised their babies right In the home they built Up in those Texas hills Oooh take me back
Family came out to the ranch today My grandpa held the babies and he watched them play And he told me, son I’m proud of the man that you’ve become In a world gone mad I’m glad to see There are still good men teaching their babies to be Honest and strong To keep praising God when it all goes wrong.
I think about his words later that night Sitting on my front porch in the moonlight And I fold my hands Lord help to me be a better man
Repeat Chorus:
Every night I take a walk down to the creek I pray the lord my soul to keep and for this crazy world I want better for my baby girls
Repeat Chorus:
Take Me Back
The clock is creeping up on midnight
I reach for the phone, but the timing
The timing’s just not right
I swore that I’d be stronger
That I could sleep in peace
Knowing all too well
That’ll never be
I’ve never needed someone
The way that I need you
Please say that you’ll be there
To get me through
Chorous:
Baby will you be my 2:30 am
Hanging on to every word at the other end
Of my up all night,
I don’t feel right telephone call
Will you fire up that old ford and head my way
Hold me in your arms and tell me it’s okay
And that you’ll never, hesitate at all
When you get my up all night
I don’t feel right telephone call
Sometimes these nights feel never ending
I say that I’m fine, but God knows.
He knows I’m just pretending
I’ve never needed someone
The way that I need you
Please say that you’ll be there
To get me through
[Repeat chorus]
And now I’m tired of fighting
I’ve given up on trying
This night is too long without you here
I’m reaching for the phone and those words I long to hear
[Repeat chorus]
