Between A Father & A Son - Old New Borrowed Blues Lyrics

Heywood was a daddy in 1942
Couldn’t read or make his letters
He said ”Boy I hope you don’t do like I do”
That was my dad he was talking to

So my father grew up stronger
Bigger dreams and bigger plans
The first to go to college
But he can still work hard with his two hands
Thanks to his old man

Yeah he learned to throw a baseball
How to set a fishin’ line
He learned about forgiveness
‘Cause u just cant waste the time
And the circle goes unbroken
But there’s so much left undone
But that’s just how it is between a father and a son

I became a daddy at the age of 23
Didn’t know what I was doing
And my daddy he wasn’t thru yet raisin me I felt lost at sea

I just kept it simple
Took it one day at t time
Tried to follow in the footsteps
The men that came before me in my life
Were doin’ just fine

‘Cause you learn to throw a baseball
How to set a fishin’ line
You learn about forgiveness
Coz u just cant waste the time
And the circle goes unbroken
But there’s so much left undone
And that’s just how it is between a father and a son

Yeah the circle goes unbroken
But there’s so much left undone
That’s just how it is,
That’s just how it is between a father and a son
A father and a son, hmmm
Between a father and a son
