Redlight King - Old Man lyrics

rate me

OLD MAN

He didn’t have much

A pair of hard working hands

Everything that I needed

I got it from the old man

With a nine second dream

He drove the Redlight Bandit

And the grease on his hands

Was the way he commanded

And the life he demanded

It kept us all in a struggle

When he ruled with his fist

It kept us all out of trouble

Even though he would leave

He wore his heart on his sleeve

And by the way that he walked

He taught me how to believe

Old man look at my life

Take a look, take a look

Old man look at my life

Cause I’m a lot like you

Old man, old man take a look at my life

Take a look, take a look

Old man, old man take a look at my life

Cause I’m a lot like you

Growin’ up at the track

He had a reason for being fast

His heart felt like breaking

He’d look right up at the ceiling and

Start again, never breathe a word of his loss

Cause it’s not about winning

It’s the rivers you cross

And the pain that you feel

Could be the fuel that you use

And if you’re in need of direction

Be it the path that you choose

My old man is a legend

He cast a shadow so great

I think of how he is watchin’

With every move that I make

Old man look at my life

Take a look, take a look

Old man look at my life

Cause I’m a lot like you

Old man, old man take a look at my life

Take a look, take a look

Old man, old man take a look at my life

Cause I’m a lot like you

Now there’s no slowin’ down

There’s only settin’ the pace

No more dreams to be stolen

Just the right ones to chase

You’ve been through the worst

Now you know who to trust

Leave them something behind

Before the ashes and dust

Old man look at my life

Old man look at my life

Old man, old man take a look at my life

Cause I’m a lot like you

Old man, old man take a look at my life

Cause I’m a lot like you

Old man, old man take a look at my life

Take a look, take a look

Old man, old man take a look at my life

Cause I’m a lot like you

Old man, old man take a look at my life

Take a look, take a look

Old man, old man take a look at my life

Cause I’m a lot like you
