Story behind the song
You learn a lot from watching your Dad. Which could be good and it could be bad. Luckily this is not autobiographical and my Dad lived to be in his 90's. Life changes and it takes effort to keep love alive. You have to put in the work.
Lyrics
1. I never took much pride in the fact
My Daddy taught me how to drink
All the same, I took care of myself
Because he also taught me how to bleed
Sometimes Im not so good; at reading the signs
Subtle shifts and private sins
But lately theres been a chill in the wind
2. I had to learn how to treat a woman
At least better than he did my Mom
He really wasnt much of a role model
And I carried him when I was 21
3. Three kids, two jobs a car in for repair
The factory is rusted, but they havent locked the gate
Trying my best to make ends meet
Without break everything inside of me
4. They say that hope keeps love alive
But hard times grind away until hope dies
Everyone is looking for a happy ending
But apathy keeps you from putting the work in
