OLD MAN KNOCKED
ON MY FRONT DOOR
WITH MY TEENAGE BOY
AND A COUPLE MORE
FROM UP THE ROAD
HE HAD 'EM BY
THE COLLAR
SAID HE CAUGHT 'EM
SHOOTIN' BEER BOTTLES
DOWN IN THE HOLLER
AND SMOKIN'
AND 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 RUNNIN'
TO YOUR BACK FORTY
WHEN THEY SAW ME
COMIN' ON MY
GATOR
AND I LOOKED HIM
IN THE EYES
AND I SAID
HE'S MINE THAT ONE
GOT A WILD-HAIRED SIDE
AND THEN SOME
'A IT'S NO SURPRISE
WHAT HE'S DONE
HE'S EVERY LAST BIT
OF MY OLD MAN'S SON
AND IF YOU
KNEW ME THEN
THERE'D BE NO QUESTION
IN YOUR MIND
YOU'D KNOW HE'S MINE
YEAH HE IS
WELL FRIDAY NIGHT
FOOTBALL GAMES
AND LIVIN' FOR
THE SPEAKERS TO
CALL THE NAME
ON THE BACK
OF NUMBER THIRTY-SEVEN
JUST ONE-FORTY-FIVE
AND FIVE FOOT ELEVEN
MAYBE
THE LIMELIGHT BARELY
SHINED ON HIM
BUT EVERYONE STILL
REMEMBERS WHEN
HE WHOOPED UP ON
THAT BOY WAY BIGGER
FOR TAKIN' THAT
CHEAP SHOT ON
OUR LITTLE KICKER
AND THEY
THREW HIM OUT
OH MAN YOU SHOULD OF
YOU SHOULD OF HEARD
ME SHOUT
I YELLED HE'S MINE
THAT ONE
GOT A WILD-HAIRED SIDE
AND THEN SOME
'A 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
BLESS HIS HEART
