Just a baby holding momma real tight in the
Moonlight, Lying in her bed
I'm saying momma please don't cry
Whats wrong is it daddy, will he be coming
Home tonight, And she said no son
He'll be gone awhile
Then the days turned in
To months on end
And I said momma whens he coming home
She said forget him son
We got our own life to run
You'll be starting school before long
I met my teacher by my desk
Like the rest of the kids on that first day
Settle down now kids and listen
And now yall when I call your name
I want you to stand up and say
Where your from and what your daddy does for
A living
And I remember this one kid
And he stood up and said
My dads a firemen, always ready
And when it got to my turn
I could feel my little broke heart burn
She said alright now, Whats your daddy
I said never ready and that was pretty much
Steady
He's been called the devils right hand
A long gone lover
Of my dear sweet mother
And more then she could stand
A joker and a fooler
A smoker and a boozer
And part time gambling man
And a full time loser
It's tough enough growing up
Not to meantion all the breaking up grown
Ups do
It gives a kid only half a chance to make it
Momma cried and tried her best
With me but could never break through
If there was a rule, I was gonna break it
But it was bad at first
Then the bad got worse
Untill before long I was a wanted man
Then the judge told me
I'm letting you off easy
With only ten short years my friend
I shook a hand of a man that I met
Two days into my ten years
Knew my name
I asked him how and he smiled
And said I know my own son any where
And dam look at you man
You sure ain't changed
I know it must of been hard son
With your own life to run
But I wanna know every minute I missed
When it got to my turn
I could feel my old broke heart bur
He asked why are you in a place like this
Well you never got me ready
And you broke my heart steady
Untill I was called the devils right hand
I'm a long gone lover
Of my childs sweet mother
And more than she could stand
A joker and a fooler
A smoker and a boozer
And part time gambling man
And a full time loser
I'm a full time loser
