Lyrics

The Man He Should Of Been 
Jody Dickey/Sonny Lee
Momma, it's been awhile

Since we've talked things through

Those memories they still haunt me
 
Of how he treated you

I was thinking of the bad times

& when I use to pray

That daddy would stop hurting you &
 
Just go away

 (Chours)  Momma I'll never be like him

That's a promis I will keep
 
I thank you for who I am

& that your warm heart's here in me

I'm gonna be the man
 
The man he should have been

Cause Momma I promiss

I'll never be like him

 
 
(Verse)   I brought you some dandelions

& forget me nots today

I remember how much you loved them
 
& how you use to say

That you would grow them up in Heaven

& be near them for all time
 
I guess you knew what he would do

Once he crossed that line

(Chours)

(Bridge) Momma I miss you
 
& I just want you to know

You'll always be here in my heart

& I'll never let you go
 
Everytime I see a flower

Everytime I feel a breeze

Momma I can feel you here with me

  

(Chorus
