《Measure of a Man》歌词

[00:00:00] Measure of a Man - Country Crusaders

[00:00:18] When I was fifteen I left home young

[00:00:22] Tore up the tracks and then some

[00:00:26] Me and my dad didn't see eye to eye

[00:00:31] I never took to him he never took the time

[00:00:35] Bullet proof more than tough

[00:00:40] Smarter than he ever was

[00:00:43] Well I burned those wheels down the highway

[00:00:48] And I learned what I learned the hard way

[00:00:52] Do the best you can do love many trust few

[00:00:56] Work hard for the money in your hands

[00:01:02] That's the measure of a man

[00:01:06] Yeah the measure of a man

[00:01:13] Anger burns love cools it down

[00:01:17] Pretty young woman turned my head around

[00:01:21] The world through her eyes looked so different

[00:01:25] She lives on faith she looks for forgiveness

[00:01:30] Fool proof it ain't easy

[00:01:34] I need her she needs me

[00:01:38] She stole my heart on this highway

[00:01:42] She taught me to love through the hard days

[00:01:47] Yeah she's cool when I'm not she's as steady as a rock

[00:01:51] She's as solid as the ring on my hand

[00:01:57] That's the measure of a man

[00:02:01] Yeah the measure of a man

[00:02:16] Last night she handed me a son of my own

[00:02:20] It killed me to do it but I picked up the phone

[00:02:26] Hey dad I burned ten years down this highway

[00:02:31] And I learned what I learned the hard way

[00:02:35] Truth is I need you we'll cry if we need to

[00:02:39] And I'll swallow my pride if you can

[00:02:45] That's the measure of a man

[00:02:48] Oh yeah the measure of a man
