"He's Mine" lyrics

Old man knocked on my front door
With my teenage boy and a couple more
From up the road
He had him by the collar
Said he caught him shooting beer bottles
Down in the huller and smoking
I said is that right
He said, they won't speak when spoken to
So which one here belongs to you
And I know one does
'Cause they all started running
To your back forty
When they saw me coming on my gator
I looked them in the eyes

And I said, he's mine that one
Got a wild-hair side and then some
There's no surprise what he's done
He's every last bit of my old man's son
If you knew me then
There'd be no question in your mind
You know he's mine
Yeah he is

Friday night football games
I was living for the speakers
To call the name
On the back of number thirty-seven
Just one forty-five
And five foot eleven, Maybe

Limelight barely shined on him
But everyone still remembers when
He whooped up on that boy way bigger
For taking that cheap shot on our little kicker
And they threw him out
Aw man, you should've, you should've heard me shout

I yelled he's mine that one
Got a wild-hair side and then some
It's no surprise what he's done
He's every last bit of my old man's son
And I'll take the blame
And claim him every time
Yeah man, he's mine and he'll always be
The best thing that ever happened to me
You can't turn it off like electricity
I love him unconditionally
I'll take the blame
And claim him every time
Yeah, y'all, he's mine
I thank God, he's mine
