"Ain't My Old Man" lyrics

Me and him were different as fire and rain
Nothing in common but his daddy's last name
He drove a Ford, so I drive a Chevy
He hated tattoos, now I got plenty
He knew God, but never went to church
Left me with mama, he'd go to work
High and tight, and cowboy strong
He hates my hair because it's too long

But there's a box of rags in the shed out back
An old grease gun, rusted ass jack
Dust on a '69 sitting on a flats
I'll get to when I can
There's a dog on the porch, the kids in the yard
A woman missing me because I work too hard
Sometimes I look in the mirror and I'll be damned
If it ain't my old man

I don't read instructions, don't go by the book
If they can tie a tie, they're probably a crook
Man's gotta work if a man's gonna eat
Now look at that apple laying right by the tree

'Cause there's a box of rags in the shed out back
An old grease gun, rusted ass jack
Dust on a '69 sitting on flats
I'll get to it when I can
There's a dog on the porch, the kids in the yard
A woman missing me because I work too hard
Sometimes I look in the mirror and I'll be damned
If it ain't my old man

Lookin' right back at me I am
Who I swore I'd never be
Calloused hands
Get just what you see
And what you see

Is a box of rags in the shed out back
An old grease gun, rusted ass jack
Dust on a '69 sitting on flats
I'll get to it when I can
There's a dog on the porch, the kids in the yard
A woman missing me because I work too hard
Sometimes I look in the mirror and I'll be damned
I know I swore I wouldn't but here I am
I'm just like my old man

Me and him were different as fire and rain
Nothing in common but his daddy's last name
