I was at that smart ass time of my life I’d pick a fight just to pick a fight He said black I said white If he took one side I took the other side Dinner table we sat around was More like a battleground Where I lost more times than I won Wouldn’t learn til later on He was always preachin about his past I just kept screamin’ come on dad
That was 20 years ago you don’t know me at all Trying to talk to you is like talking to a wall Yea you gave me my life but its my life to live And maybe I don’t wanna live it like you did 20 years ago
He was built from blue collar sweat and blood Square jaw and a crew cut a purple heart a Viet vet And he’d tell you every chance he’d get Always runnin’ down my rock & roll My friends, my hair, and my clothes Til it all got out of control And one night it finally came to blows That was just enough to get me gone I couldn’t wait to prove him wrong
20 years ago I struck out on my own He couldn’t tell me nothin’ I didn’t already know Yea I was on my way So what the hell did I care With my old man and his gray hair Thought about the road I chose 20 years ago
(spoken) I left as fast as the leaves fell that autum I never looked back and I never once called him But every time I talked to moma I wondered if he was there Or if he even cared I figured I walked out on him and the course of our love Had run moma said no no you listen to me son he’s a stubborn man and he won’t give in He believes what he believes and you’re just like him And I could tell by her voice there was something wrong she broke down and said he ain’t got long So I caught the next plane home thought about all the years gone And how my pride had let so much time go by ran up those stairs and I stood by his bed and cried
20 years ago I thought I knew it all but tryin to talk to me is like talking to a wall Yea thought I was a man but actin’ like I did But all I want right now is just to be your kid And just before my dad gave up the ghost He took my hand and said son let it go That was 20 years ago 20 years ago
