You've always lived the simple life like it's a grand parade
Honey I was your road block
Told me since you met me, you just hadn't felt the same
Like a boat with no dock
You ask me to change, I tell you that I can't
Darling believe me if there's a lord up above
Then god damned the man I am to be the man I was
You were raising children, oney I was raising cain
Singing songs for the burnouts and barroom brides
Tried to hear your cries but I was half a world away
Honey, I could only hope that all was right
You asked me to stay, I tell you that I can't
Darling believe me if there's a lord up above
Then god damned the man I am to be the man I was
And I can't change
You've always lived the simple life like it's a grand parade
Honey I was your road block
