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
