"Note To Self" lyrics

I can still see my old man
Sitting right there in his chair
Glass of bourbon, piece of paper
And a ballpoint in his hand
"Son, if it's worth remembering
It's best to write it down
That's how how you get a thousand thoughts
All scattered 'round the house"

I guess the apple didn't fall too far from that tree
He was everything I try so hard to be

Be a man that a man can look up to
The kinda lover makes a woman wanna love you
When you shake a hand, always look 'em in the eyes
When you're in the wrong, apologize
For everything else when you need a little help
And before it goes to hell, note to self

If you find the one worth holding on
Don't ever let her go
Every time you think about her
Make sure to let her know
How many times I've written down
That I need a box of milk
But not how much I love her
And how I really felt

Be a man that a man can look up to
The kinda lover makes a woman wanna love you
When you shake a hand, always look 'em in the eyes
When you're in the wrong, apologize
For everything else when you need a little help
And before it goes to hell, note to self

Read between the lines, you start to realize
That the apple doesn't fall far from the tree

Be a man that a man can look up to
The kinda lover makes a woman wanna love you
When you shake a hand, always look 'em in the eyes
When you're in the wrong, apologize
For everything else when you need a little help
And before it goes to hell, note to self

Before it goes to hell, note to self
