[Verse 1]
Don't ever lie, stand up straight
Only fight if there's no other way
All of your words have been carved into my mind
Man, I sure hope you can help me one more time
[Chorus]
How do you get up after a breakup
That left you broken inside?
'Cause you always told me not to cry
In all of your wisdom can you answer one
Question I'll never understand
Dad, how does a boy get over a girl like a man?
[Verse 2]
Yes sir, we've tried to talk it out
But she says it's over and I don't know how
To keep goin' on when I gave her all of my soul
When you've lost your whole world
Dad, tell me where do you go?
[Chorus]
How do you get up after a breakup
That left you broken inside?
'Cause you always told me not to cry
In all of your wisdom can you answer one
Question I'll never understand
Dad, how does a boy get over a girl like a man?
[Bridge]
You know every time I'm talking to you
Everything's so much easier to get through
So Dad, just tell me what to do
[Chorus]
How do you get up after a breakup
That left you broken inside?
You know the thing that really kills me
Is I let her see me cry
In all of your wisdom can you answer one
Question I'll never understand
Dad, how does a boy get over a girl like a man?
Tell me, how does a boy get over a girl like a man?
